Hero At Home

Hero At Home - Amy Douglas

The tears began to flow

She watched with a heavy heart

As he bowed to kiss the children

On their faces in the dark

She knew down deep inside

That she needed to be strong

Cause he'd committed to the fight

And she knew that all along

But even though the freedom

Of her children was at stake

She just couldn't hold the tears back

As he looked into her face

She's a mommy

She's a wife

She is holding down the home front

While Daddy fights for what is right

She's a chauffer

She's a home room mom

And she whispers a prayer

Every time she feels alone

But for the sake of love she presses on

Cause she's a hero at home

He gets one or two letters

Each week faithfully

Full of love and homemade pictures

The kids drew so carefully

Cause she's not there

But she can imagine

How it feels when

You can't be havin'

The ones you love right beside you

She's a mommy

She's a wife

She is holding down the home front

While Daddy fights for what is right

She's a chauffer

She's a home room mom

And she whispers a prayer

Every time she feels alone

But for the sake of love she presses on

She's a hero at home

And to all of the families

And the soldiers you love so

May God give you strength

And peace as you wait for them

To come home

She's a mommy

She's a wife

She is holding down the home front

While Daddy fights for what is right

She's a chauffer

She's a home room mom

And she whispers a prayer

Every time she feels alone

But for the sake of love she presses on

But for the sake of love she presses on

But for the sake of love

She's staying strong

She's a hero at home

Woo yeah
