The Day is Here
The day is here
Its time to say goodbye
To leave all the ones I love
The day is here
I’m boarding a plane
Flying away from my home
Serving my purpose
The day is here
Training starts
10 hours a day
Rain or snow we never stop
We are here for a reason
The day is here
All I want is to go home
See my family
See my friends
The day is here
I’ve been serving for 1 year
Getting restationed
The places I’ve been
The things I’ve seen
The day is here
It’s time to leave
I board the plane
A 14 hour flight
The day is here
The plane seems like it is taking a million years
I can’t wait to see their faces
Hear their voices
be with my family once again
The day is here
No one knows I’m home
I get off the plane and start driving back
The day is here
I’m home at last
