Woke up early boots on the ground
Another day in this dusty town
Far from home but I'm holding strong
Thinking 'bout the place where I belong
Being a father it's the best role I've filled
Even out here it's your love that I feel
Miles away but you're close to my heart
Your picture keeps me going even when it's hard
Got your drawing in my pocket a smile on your face
It's my little piece of home in this faraway place
Every break I take I hold it tight
Dreaming 'bout holding you on a quiet night
Being a father it's the best role I've filled
Even out here it's your love that I feel
Miles away but you're close to my heart
Your picture keeps me going even when it's hard
Counting down the days till I'm back with you
We'll make up for the time there's nothing we can't do
You're my reason my strength my light
I'll be home soon everything will be alright
Being a father it's the best role I've filled
Even out here it's your love that I feel
Miles away but you're close to my heart
Your picture keeps me going even when it's hard
Counting down the days till I'm back with you
We'll make up for the time there's nothing we can't do
You're my reason my strength my light
I'll be home soon everything will be alright
Being a father it's the best role I've filled
Even out here it's your love that I feel
Miles away but you're close to my heart
Your picture keeps me going even when it's hard
Counting down the days till I'm back with you
We'll make up for the time there's nothing we can't do
You're my reason my strength my light
I'll be home soon everything will be alright
