Keep a strong face and don’t let him see you cry,
Before he looks at you dry your tear stained eye's.
Show them the courage that you have for you both,
Because to see him walk away, you have a harder job than most,
When he asks you if everything is alright,
Gently kiss his cheek and tell him goodnight,
No matter what you do you cant keep it off your mind,
How can they send my husband to war, he should be mine,
Don’t worry you will always be in his heart,
It doesn’t matter how many miles you are apart,
You have said goodbye a thousand times before,
But every moment is cherished, you always want more.
Not many will understand why this is so hard,
But they have never walked a mile in your shoes, they will never be dealt that card,
So stand up straight and hold your head up high,
Because he cant show it, you hold the soldiers cry.
