Dear Chris,

Your lyrics in "Thinking of You" are a heartfelt and poignant tribute to your brother and sister, who you mention served in Iraq in 2002 and which inspired you to compose this. The song beautifully captures the deep sense of longing, pride, and support felt for loved ones during their time away.

The first verse of "Thinking of You"  reflects on cherished memories, highlighting the way time has passed yet those moments remain fresh in mind. It's a powerful way to convey the enduring connection and love for your siblings. The phrase "So little time for memories, but you're always in mine" encapsulates the sentiment perfectly.

The chorus of the song is particularly moving. The lines, "And you know I'm thinking of you, As the battle rages on, The same stars are out there, Wherever you are," express the idea that despite the physical distance, there's a cosmic connection and a sense of unity under the same stars. It's a beautiful metaphor for the unbreakable bond between family members, even in the face of adversity.

The second verse expresses concern for their safety and the desire for their safe return. The lines "Until the duty is done, All our hearts go there with you, And all our prayers are for you, To find us again" showing unwavering support and hope that they’d make it home safe and sound.

The song ends with a powerful crescendo, symbolizing a strong desire for this voice to reach and uplift brother and sister amidst the chaos of battle.

Overall, these lyrics are a moving tribute to the bravery and sacrifice of those serving in the military and the love and support of their families. The emotions and words resonate deeply, capturing the essence of what it means to have a loved one serving in a distant and dangerous place. The message is one of love, pride, and unwavering support, making "Thinking of You" a truly touching and meaningful song.

Thank you for sharing this with us,
