One whole year of loving you
From that first dinner to the life we grew
Now the military’s calling me away
And it’s killing me I can’t stay
I see the worry in your eyes tonight
Like you’re scared this distance might change our lives
But baby listen close to me
You’re still my home no matter where I’ll be
I know your heart’s been hurt before
Left with scars you still can’t ignore
But I swear on every star above
I’ll spend forever proving your worth of love
So hold me close before I go
Even oceans won’t change what we know
No matter where this world may send me
Nico, you’ll always have all of me
And if something happens, if life gets hard
I’ll still find my way back to your heart
Cause loving you feels like where I belong
Nine more months and I’m coming home
Back to your arms where I’ve always belonged
I hope I make you feel a love so deep
The kind that finally lets your soul sleep
The kind that heals every shattered part
And quiets all the storms inside your heart
You deserve somebody who stays
Who chooses you in every way
And baby that’s exactly what I’ll do
Every road I take still leads to you
When the nights feel cold and long
Just remember we’re still strong
A little distance can’t erase
The forever written on our hearts this way
So hold me close before I go
Even oceans won’t change what we know
No matter where this world may send me
Nico, you’ll always have all of me
And if something happens, if life gets hard
I’ll still find my way back to your heart
Cause loving you feels like where I belong
Nine more months and I’m coming home
Back to your arms where I’ve always belonged
We survived every fear before
And I know we can survive this war
Cause love like ours don’t fade away
Not with time, not with distance, not with pain
You’re my safe place, my best friend too
And every version of me still chooses you
So count the days and hold on tight
I’ll be dreaming of you every night
Under foreign skies or far away
My heart still whispers your name
And when those nine long months are through
The first thing I’m running home to is you
Cause no matter where this life may roam
You will always be my home
