I was lonely and incomplete
My heart yearned for someone to meet
Along you came, right into my life
Within a week we were promised man and wife.
Time it passed we had so much fun
But then we calmed down because we'd had a son
Our life was great we were so happy
I often laughed at you changing a nappy.
Our life ran on, sometimes a whirl
Then it went crazy because we'd had a girl
Our hands they were full with jobs and with kids
Our entire social life was with beer and a few vids.
A long time together, these years are now past
Our family is growing but has love built to last
The kids and I miss you while you work away
and when you come home we just want you to stay
This life that we live, some say it is barmy
But this can't be helped because you live in the army
I only hope that sometimes you'd stay
I sit here and dream that you will one day.
