lyrics

In the distance there is thunder
As you come down out of the clouds
Four long years I have been waiting
The sky is dark but there is light
The rushing fills my ears
The wind, it carries away tears
Now the world is filled by the sound as you come

Every day you lived with danger
It was your friend, like a warm bath
Back at home, I darned my stockings
Watched Mickey Mouse, saved chicken fat
While you were killing men, I planted a Victory Garden
Now the world is filled by the sound as you come

Oh, faith is all you have when you lead a love by letters
Is it everything you need?
If love is all you have, and love is all you need
Then why are all us people living lives of misery?

Every day in things around me
I could catch hints that you were there
Something in the crowded places
Flash of a voice, shine of a hair
I hope you still love me
I wonder what I will see
Now at least the veils are falling away

I met men every day
And they all had things to offer
And they thought they could fill my needs
But you are my hero
I hold your memory
A rope that I grab on to when I fear I’m falling free

Oh, you are my war hero
You rise above the crowd
A note of peace when everything is loud
You’re everything I hoped for
The light that fills my sky
And you put the tears here in my eye
