4troops - don't forget about me lyrics
[verse 1]
i grew up on a farm with fields of green that stretched for miles into the sun
still hear my daddy telling me “son, freedom don’t come for free”
it took a while to learn what those words mean
and now, a million miles away i look out on the land, that’s grey and cold as all
just doing what i’m told, ’cause that’s the job i chose
and now i know what dad’s words really mean
but oh my god, the suffering i’ve seen
[chorus]
don’t forget about me
i’m still here just doing what i know
and i was proud to go
but god knows how i’m missing you tonight
don’t forget about me
’cause when you close your eyes tonight you’ll be
right here next to me
and someday soon i’ll be coming home to you
[verse 2]
tell my son that i’ll be home, pretty soon he and i will be playing ball
tell my daughter “don’t be scared”, tell her “daddy still right here”
someday i will walk her down the aisle
daddy’s got to stay work awhile
[chorus]
don’t forget about me
i’m still here just doing what i know
and i was proud to go
but god knows how i’m missing you tonight
don’t forget about me
when you close your eyes tonight you’ll be
right here next to me
and someday soon i’ll be coming home to you
[bridge]
i ain’t no hero, don’t think i don’t scared
then i close my eyes and i see you
that’s the thing that always gets me through
[verse 3]
i’ve got my brothers back and i know which one of them would give their life for me
it’s a small price to pay for the life we live each day
it’s my job, and someone has to go
i’ve got no regrets, just paying what i own
[chorus]
but don’t forget about me
’cause i’m still here just doing what i know
and i was proud to go
but god knows how i’m missing you tonight
don’t forget about me
one day i’ll come walking through that door
and you won’t cry no more
and i really will be there right next to you
’cause one day pray this fighting will be through
