[Verse]
Dust on my boots and a tear in my sleeve
Left my heart in the dirt where the shadows grieve
The road's been long but the fire still burns
[Chorus]
I'm just a soldier I'm coming home lord
Through the thunder through the storm
I'm just a soldier I'm coming home lord
Let your light keep me warm
[Verse 2]
Sky's gone black but the stars won't hide
I hear your voice on the wind tonight
Each step I take feels heavy like lead
[Bridge]
The battle's over but the war's not done
My scars still scream when I see the sun
But I keep walking to where I belong
[Chorus]
I'm just a soldier I'm coming home lord
Through the thunder through the storm
I'm just a soldier I'm coming home lord
Let your light keep me warm
[Outro]
If I fall before I reach your door
Tell my soul to fight once more
I'm just a soldier I'm coming home lord
