Chorus:

When are you coming home, Shaun?

When are you coming home?!

We lit up the house like we always do but it doesn’t seem bright ’cause we can’t have you.

In my prayers I ask God to keep you safe.

And I’m trying to be really brave.

Tell me that the fighting’s through.

Come home!

I really miss you.

The song is so sad, but so beautiful at the same time.

To all of those with a loved one serving abroad, sing along with Heather for their safe trip back home.
