Rolling sounds of distant thunder invades the calming sunset
As the colors trying to shade the sky
Paint a different scene of good reason to all of this
Strangers approach, children skip by
And all you can think of is home
Where there is no such thing as a different language
Only comfort and understanding of words
Floating through your head and settling your nerves
The gentle wave of music is heard down the dusty streets
Buildings of rough stone and mud tower over head
As you slowly walk through the tiny city
Only memories and hope keep you sane
As the heat makes your uniform stick to you
And you remember where you are and what you’re doing there
But as you sleep our love envelops you
Keeps you close to us, keeps you safe
Our heads are always full of dreams
In waiting of the day you return to us
To run into our arms of excited greetings
And answered prayers
So do not feel alone as the wind kicks up the dust
Blowing it further down your throat
To tell you that you’re not missed
To tell you that we think not of you
For it is in the sunset where we lay
Waving, and calling to you
Our colors painting your reason and our love
And your reminder that we will be back tomorrow
When you wake, inside the sunrise
Inside of you
Never miss another harmonic horizon
For there you will find
