I got to the airport
Just in time for your flight
And I saw a husband run off the plane to his wife
He was full of emotion
Didn’t care who could see
Made me stop and wonder when’s the last time you looked at me
Like you were a soldier comin’ home
Like you counted the nights you were gone
Like each moment together’s more precious than ever because you’re safe inside of my arms
Like you can’t get enough of me when you make love to me like you were a soldier comin’ home.
That’s when it hit me, just the way she was looking at him.
Caught up in the moment she forgot all the lonely she’s been.
You’re gone so much now. It’s become no big deal.
Made me stop and wonder when’s the last time I made you feel like you were a soldier comin home.
Like I counted the nights you were gone.
Like each moment together’s more precious than ever because you’re safe inside my arms
Like I can’t get enough of you when I make love to you
Like you were a soldier comin’ home.
That’s why I’m holding you this way
We can’t take for granted
Baby lets live every day like you were a soldier comin’ home
Like you can’t wait to get me alone
Like each moment together’s more precious than ever
When you’re safe inside my arms.
Like I can’t get enough of you when I make love to you.
Like you were a soldier comin’ home.
I’m gonna love you like you were a soldier comin’ home.
