You live in letters sent with
shaky hands and circumstances
I bet you never thought your
life could turn so tragic
A never ending summer in
the sand is not vacation
I swear I saw my life flash
before my eyes as the waves
came crashing down I saw
reflections of your face
up in the sky as the shots
fired before you heard a sound
What's it feel like to be alone?
The one you love is across the ocean
You'll never know if he's coming home
The firefight dear it isn't over
You spend your nights drinking
alone waiting for phone calls
I bet you never thought your
life could seem so long
I'd walk the ocean floor
so I could bring you home
I swear I saw my life flash
before my eyes as the waves
came crashing down I saw
reflections of your face
up in the sky as the shots
fired before you heard a sound
What's it feel like to be alone?
The one you love is across the ocean
You'll never know if he's coming home
The firefight dear it isn't over
Sometimes life really isn't fair
And maybe I wished you far
far from here But all I ever
wanted was for you to care
All I ever wanted was
to meet you there
Sometimes life really isn't fair
And maybe I wished you far
far from here But all I ever
wanted was for you to care
All I ever wanted was
to meet you there
Sometimes life really isn't fair
And maybe I wished you far
far from here But all I ever
wanted was for you to care
All I ever wanted was
to meet you there
I swear I saw my life flash
before my eyes as the waves
came crashing down
What's it feel like to be alone?
The one you love is across the ocean
You'll never know if he's coming home
The firefight dear it isn't over
What's it feel like to be alone?
The one you love is across the ocean
You'll never know if he's coming home
The firefight dear it isn't over
