Half A World Away j.cerisano©
I can't take this being far away from you
Trying to figure out if what I'm doin is right
Cause these kinda questions they don’t do me any good
as I look up at this Iraqi moon tonight
I know it's day time where you are
I see you in our car
drivin’ to work.. startin’ your day.........

A Half a World away....

I do what I have to do, they trained me good
I know my job, just like I know the back of my hand
and on my hand I got a trigger finger, that I’ve had to use
it’s good to that know my buddies got my back
I wear the cross, you gave on my chain
to keep me safe until I’m back home again to stay...

A Half a World away
I’m seeing things I never thought I’d ever see at 21
A Half a World away....
Sometimes the only thing that people understand is the barrel of a gun

I feel the warm desert wind brush across my face
I lay here in this G-d forsaken place
I think of you you every minute of the day
A Half a World away.... A Half a World away....
I’m seeing things I never thought I’d ever see at 21
A Half a World away....
Sometimes the only thing that people understand is the barrel of a gun
A Half a World away....
A soldier take his orders doesn’t question wrong or right and gets the job done
A Half a World away....
Sometimes the only thing that people understand is the barrel of a gun
