every minute your not here my heart misses a beat
with out you i am not truly complete
i will not let the distance destroy us
we are stronger, i promise not to put up a fuss
if we are together through all this stress
then we will make it through to once more feel a caress
just keep your head down it will be all over soon
so you can act once more like a buffoon
with out each other our hearts are offbeat
we can not throw our hands up in defeat
just keep on trudging in that hellhole over there
and we will keep this relationship under repair
so one day soon we can be together again
for you my love is on the end of a chain
my heart dog tag that is to be given back
when you get back off that bus from Iraq
