My Hero |
 |
|
My baby is leaving me today
I don't know how long
he'll be away.
He is going to a far away land
so he
can lend a helping hand.
I take him in my arms so
tight
not wanting him to take this flight.
My tears
flow as pouring rain
as I'm not able to mask my pain.
He is a Marine, so proud and so tall
ready to answer
his nations' call.
He keeps our enemy's plans at bay
as he watches them each day.
I reminisce on our first
hello,
our first kiss so long ago.
So many memories,
so much fun
He is my Hero, he is my son. |
