[Verse 1]
Here's the school yard where we'd play
When we were younger years before today
Laughing without a care to chase away
We met and vowed our love would never stray
I knew someday he would be
The one to come home to me

[Verse 2]
Here's the chapel where we wed
I won't forget the loving words we said
Though time were tough and many tears were shed
We laid our plans and tried to get ahead
Then soon one day we were sweet
And still he came home to me

[Verse 3]
Here's the house we made our own
Build with hard work and all the seed we'd sewn
Future's as strong as the house's cornerstone
Somehow it seemed our travels all had flown
Our lives once again care free
Each night he came home to me

[Bridge]
Then came the day he was called away
Seemingly, I knew to pray
Here in my heart I kept him ever near
My thoughts of him would shelter me from fear
Though he was across the sea
Each night he came home to me
[Verso 4]
Here's the meadow where he fell
His is a tail I'll always stop to tell
He comes at night to see I'm doing well
The meadow I hold is into his lapel
Even now though his soul is free

[Outro]
Each night he comes home... to me
