Notice the daate...oldie
"Freesom Isn't Free"
As I watched you pull the seat belt across and buckle it
I stood there and watched thinking I couldn't take it!
On the inside I was screaming please don't go as
my knees hit the ground and I pleaded with you
but on the outside I stood tall and proud
with a half smile and half frown as I waved to you.
I never let you see just how bad it was killing me
knowing that this is the price for America to be free!
My heart broke as I heard the ignition turn over
the car pulled away and our conversation played over
in my mind and in my heart!
I wanted us to never again part!
As I made one last wave and said in a barely a whisper
"See you later my love" one lone tear fell silently down my cheek!
This is the price that we pay for you to serve our country
and I will forever stand by your side proud that you keep me free!
I will be here waiting now and foerver
until you return to me to stay for always!
And you can believe that for me
Freedom Isn't Free!
