I Owe My Everything To You (click for lyrics)

(THIS IS YOUR SONG)

I'll always remember
All those nights in Iraq on the phone
When your voice would remind me of home
And I'd picture you next to me
I'd smile when I'd think of
Sneaking off on our limousine ride
It was just me and you, over cider for two
And we kissed for the very first time

(Chorus)
You've given me all of your heart and your soul
No matter how far away I'd have to go
The strength of your love always carried me through
I owe my everything to you
I knew you're the one for me right from the start
And even when war tried to tear us apart
I never had doubt that you'd always be true
I owe my everything to you

In what felt like a moment
I was planning that day in the park
Told your parents you'd captured my heart
And I needed to be with you
Took you to the gazebo
Hid the words underneath chocolate cake
There was too much to eat, but the ending was sweet
Because your 'yes' changed my life on that day

(Chorus)

The wife of a soldier
Needs a courage most don't understand
When your husband's in faraway lands
With no promise of anything
And when I came back home to you
You stood right by my side all the while
Like my grandfather knew
From his first day with you
Your love can withstand every trial

(Chorus)

On the phone, we'd never say goodbye
Just "sweet dreams," "see you later"
Then we'd pray that it'd be fine
We were both scared
But I knew that you would be there

Someday in peacetime
When this war is a part of our past
Just a story we tell to our kids
When they ask us where we began
We'll move back to California
Think of all of the roads we could run
All the meals we could make, I will cook and you'll bake
And we'll celebrate how far we've come

(Chorus)
