Borneback - Mike Lyrics

The sun is shining on this mundane morning
As he awakes from his bed
Living his life and carrying his family
A love known by so many

He finds a letter that's been placed on his desk

Dear solider you've been called to war
To fight for a country which we all adore
He leaves his family and friends behind
To serve a bigger purpose
To protect you and I
Soaring above the clouds
Fighting to make his family proud

Making friends with his brothers in arms
A bond that can't be broken
You'll never tear them apart
It seems like years but it's only been months
With the days growing longer
He almost feels like giving up
A sudden call from his beautiful wife
To tell him the news of a brand new life
A speechless man with tears in his eyes
Overwhelming love due to the sudden surprise

Hanging up the phone
Saying I love you
Pondering his thoughts
And unsure what to do
A million things racing through his head
Racing through his mind
Wondering what's next
When will I get to go home
I want to be home now

And again it seems like years but it's been nine months
Stuck in his head as if he's fighting on two fronts
Now he's been told, one final run
And here it comes
His time is almost done
He's been told, one final run
And here it comes
His time is almost done

The sky went dark
Here comes the enemy

I feel the fire, raining down, on me
I see the blood, but I won't flee
I feel the fire, raining down, on me
I see the blood, but I won't flee

Love, lost, pain and hope
End or beginning
Love, lost, pain and hope
End or beginning
