I'm so lonely, sometimes i hate being an army wife, but in the end its all worth it.
It seems that I fall in and out
Of what this is all about
In the beginning I was running toward the phone
And now I hear nothing but the dial tone
Hes not here anymore
Now life is nothing but a bore
This deployment is really getting to me
I'm so sad, but no one can see
When I'm with him life is great
But now he's not even in the same state
State? Why did I say that?
Iraq, fighting in combat.
I wish he would come home
Eleven more months to roam.
I really hate being alone
It's like living in a twilight zone
It's like I'm not all here
Because the man I love isn't near
Gosh I hate this stupid deployment
And his heart filled with all sorts of enjoyment
Not enjoyment I might say
More like pride everyday.
His country he fights for you and me.
All for the land of the free
But in the end there one thing I feel
It's the only thing I know thats real.
This pride I feel of being apart
The Military is in my heart
This thing I've built is my life
I am proud to be an Army wife.
