Today, after I finally sat down, I heard a song that just hit me so hard in the heart that it felt as though I'd been punched. It's about a Soldier's daughter... It hit me so hard that I just started crying when I heard it. It is so touching and so true. I loved my Daddy for who he was to me, to my mom, to the country I love. "Please don't worry, Daddy, you know I'll be ok, but it's my time to serve. It's now my time to say I will fight for you, for the red, white and blue. I won't be afraid, whatever comes my way! When duty calls for me, I will answer to the call. I will stand. I will fight. I'll give my all..."
They called my Dad to fight a war when I was only three... He came back to our small town and he wrote to me. He knew the odds and the price that he might pay, but that's the cost of freedom. He proudly stood to say "I will fight for you, for the red white and blue, I won't be afraid whatever comes my way! When duty calls for me, I will answer to the call, I will stand, I will fight, I'll give my all..."
His strong arms around me, he walks me to the door, I see the fear in his eyes I've never seen before, please don't worry Daddy, you know i'll be ok, but it's my time to serve, It's now my time to say: "I will fight for you, for the red white and blue, I won't be afraid, whatever comes my way! When duty calls for me, I will answer to the call, I will stand, I'll fight, I'll give my all."
And if the time should come for our sons and daughters to fight, they'll stand proud and say with all their might: "We will fight for you, for the red, white and blue, we won't be afraid, whatever comes our way! When duty calls for us, we will answer to the call, we will stand, we will fight, we'll give our all."
"We will fight for you, for the red, white and blue, we won't be afraid, whatever comes our way! When duty calls for us, we will answer to the call, we will stand, we will fight, we'll give our all."
We will fight for the red white and blue. We won't be afraid, whatever comes our way. When duty calls for us, we will answer to the call. WE WILL STAND, WE WILL FIGHT, WE'LL GIVE OUR ALL.
Everything in life is temporary, because everything changes. That's why it takes great courage to love, knowing it might end anytime but having the faith it will last forever.
