Heaven's Tide - For My Little Girl Lyrics

I signed up young thought I was made of steel
But leavin' her behind made it all too real
My baby girl only one when I left
Tears in her eyes I felt the weight in my chest
Every night on the front line I prayed
Wrote her letters just to keep me sane
Missed her first steps missed her first words
But every fight I fought I fought for her

Through the battle through the pain
Kept her picture in my pocket just to ease my brain
God give me strength to make it through
I'm coming home baby I'll fight for you

For my little girl I'll stand tall
Through the darkest nights I won't fall
Every mile every tear I fight to be near
God's got my back He'll bring me home from here

Woke up to the sound of bombs in the night
But her face in my mind kept me holding tight
She don't know the battles I've seen
But she's the reason I stand between
Enemy lines I'm fighting the fear
Knowing I'll see her smile when the smoke clears
God keep her safe keep her in Your arms
While I'm out here away keep her from harm

Through the battle through the pain
Kept her picture in my pocket just to ease my brain
God give me strength to make it through
I'm coming home baby I'll fight for you

For my little girl I'll stand tall
Through the darkest nights I won't fall
Every mile every tear I fight to be near
God's got my back He'll bring me home from here

Sometimes I wonder if she's growing strong
Does she remember me? Will it feel like long?
But God reminds me in every prayer
My baby's safe His love is there

For my little girl I'll stand tall
Through the darkest nights I won't fall
Every mile every tear I fight to be near
God's got my back He'll bring me home from here

I'm comin' home yeah I'm comin' through
For my little girl baby I'll fight for you
