I'm not sure where I lost you,
Though you say things haven't changed,
But when you leave home,
Things become rearranged.
You want to fight,
Protect your home,
But do you need to be a Seabee?
Your dedication has surely shown.
And even though you're home,
Your mind is there,
Not happy here,
I guess sometimes love isn't fair.
I'm not saying I want ALL your attention,
But hearing "I love you" would be nice,
I'm competing with a woman named war,
And because of her we're as cold as ice.
I'm not asking for much,
Just a little compassion,
But maybe it's just me,
Maybe I'm old fashioned.
Because I feel like I never see you,
And in fact I don't,
Because when you promise to call,
It's like a promise saying you won't.
