My Hero Out There

I say thank you
For all the times far away from home
Eating Christmas dinner in a combat zone
I say thank you!

I say I love you
For all of the loves lost along the way
Living to fight on another grey day
I say thank you

I say I'm more grateful to you wherever you are
Sleeping under a blanket of moon & stars
I say thank you

I say thank you
The people who see you in your combat gear
Looking as if you have no fear
I know you're frightened sometimes

I say thank you
Oh what I would give to have you as my hero my man
Keeping home fires hot, you come back to me when you can
I would say, I'll always love you

I say I love you
You're out there in the world taking sex on the run
It's not fulfilling it's not even fun
I say I understand though I don't

I say I could never hold you
Sex on the run will leave you as empty as before
Cruising in cruising out of each lovers door
I say I feel sorry for you

I say thank you, still thank you
For all that you've done for all that you do
Ever faithful for the sake of the red white and blue
You're still my hero
I say thank you
I still love you
