Female Vocals Verse 1
I've been waiting far too long for you to come back home
the yellow ribbon on my door makes me miss you more and more
and your thousands of miles away and I'm counting down the days
so many things you've yet to see, like the baby I brought home with me
she's got your eyes, she's got your smile, helps to see you in our child

Chorus
When the sun sets in my sky my tears roll through the night
your thousands of miles away and I'm countin down the days
I think about you, and all you have to do, Lord I pray for you

Male vocals Verse 2
I've been gone for far too long with just your letters to keep me strong
I keep your picture by my side so by night your memorized
I just need to touch your face and be back in your warm embrace 
but I keep on keepin on, tell my baby it won't be long cause her daddy's coming home yea her daddy's coming home

Male Chorus
when I go outside each day, armed and ready I won't make mistakes
your thousands of miles away and I'm countin down the days
I think about you and all I have to do, I do it all for you

Female Vocals Verse 3
Tomorrow she'll be turnin 2 and she wants you to know she misses you
yellow ribbons in her golden hair, she keeps her daddy in her prayers
got your picture by her side, last thing she sees when she shuts her eyes
she lays her head to rest and prays Jesus bring my daddy fast
her only birthday wish is a baby doll and her daddy's kiss

Female Chorus
when she sees fear in my eyes, she whispers mama please don't cry
but your thousands of miles away and I'm counting down the days
I think about you and all you have to do Lord I pray for you


(BOTH)You're thousands of miles away and I'm counting down the days
I think about you, and all you have to do, Lord I pray for you
