Dear Soldier ft. Johnny Walker Lyrics

Oh you were just a kid like me

Growing up with big hopes and dreams

Football parties and that first car

And the girl next door who stole your heart

But you left town and let it go

Answered that call in your soul

Cause you were born brave it's true

So here's my open letter you

Dear Soldier

I'm in awe of you

I can never know all you're going through

There's no limit to your sacrifice

I don't know what made you choose this life

Dear soldier you're a special breed

Out there paying the price for me

Dear Soldier I'm in awe of you

No complaints works 24 straight

Hanging tough on missed holidays

Just when things are settled and cool

Well it's time to pack up fast and move

You knew you'd be deployed again

Thank God for good women and men

And for you who took this selfless path

There's no way to ever pay you back

But till the end we honor you

For your love of the red white and blue

And if you don't make it through

Here's my open letter to you

Dear Soldier

I'm in awe of you

I can never know all you're going through

There's no limit to your sacrifice

I don't know what made you choose this life

Dear soldier you're a special breed

Out there paying the price for me

Dear Soldier

I'm in awe of you

Yeah I'm in awe of you
