Day and night my mind wonders about only you
So many dreams in my head that I would like to come true
As we journey together on this path of life
I'll be sure to support you 100% and hopefully become your wife
Not a day goes by that I don't prepare myself
One day you'll have to leave me and I'll have no one else
Only 19 and taking on a grown man's job
Inspires me to keep pushing you, my heartthrob
You mean so much to me and I'll always show it
But when that day comes for departure, our love will never quit
Going into the Marines is such a challenge my dear
I believe in you and I know I'll shed tears
Such a strong bond that's filled with love
Each and everyday I'll pray for you to the Man above
My heart may be heavy during the process
But being a Marine wife is for a few, not the rest
When you're away on duty, I'll hold it down
You keep doing you and we both shall never frown
Absences make the heart grow, this is true
But I'm up for the challenge, I'll rock with you
Back and forth , coming and going
No matter what, our love is constantly growing
His uniform is different, the best you've ever seen
The Germans call him Devil Dog
His real name is Marine
