[Intro]
Softly I wait, the sun begins to rise,
With every tick of the clock, heartbeats synchronize.
A love letter wrapped in the warmth of a smile,
Counting the moments, it’s been such a while.
[Verse 1]
There’s a bus on the horizon, dust in the air,
What am I wearing? Will he even care?
Nine long months, my heart’s in his hands,
With memories swirling like grains in the sand.
[Pre-Chorus]
I’ve watched our baby boy grow, every laugh, every coo,
And in the quiet of nights, I whispered he’d see you too.
A daughter waiting nearby, with a light in her eyes,
Today we’ll gather round, no more goodbyes.
[Chorus]
Welcome home, love, it’s your first parade,
A family’s embrace, and the plans we’ve made.
With arms open wide, and the tears that flow,
You’re finally here, let the world know!
[Verse 2]
I remember the nights, the dreams that we shared,
Your strength in my heart, how I always cared.
With every sunrise, I felt you were near,
Knowing soon you’d return, whispering sweet prayers.
[Pre-Chorus]
Our boy is a toddler now, babbling with glee,
And your daughter’s laughter, it dances in me.
The moment I see you, it’ll make time stand still,
Let this day be magic, as we bask in the thrill.
[Chorus]
Welcome home, love, it’s your first parade,
A family’s embrace, and the plans we’ve made.
With arms open wide, and the tears that flow,
You’re finally here, let the world know!
[Bridge]
Every mile we’ve crossed, every tear we’ve shed,
Is woven together in the life we’ve led.
A journey of soldiers, a journey of love,
Now we stand united, blessed from above.
[Outro]
So here’s to new laughter, to joy, and to cheer,
To a soldier, a husband, and a father so dear.
As you step off that bus, let the stories unfold,
In the warmth of your arms, we’ll find love to hold.
