Song Lyrics

[Chorus]
As days go by
I'm missing you baby
Patiently waiting
For you
To hold you
To thrill you
To feel you
Tender kisses
Give you the love you've been missing
Boy I can't wait till you come back home
To have you all alone(As days go by)

I'm missing you baby
Patiently waiting
For you
To hold you
To thrill you
To feel you
Tender kisses
Give you the love you've been missing
Boy I can't wait till you come back home
To have you all alone (As days go by)

Now I done came a long way
But ain't gone too far
And hope this love letter don't
Leave a big scar
So baby just hold on
Lil' momma just be strong
Cause no one knew the war
Would last us so long
The rockets the red glare
The bombs up in the air
I'm just doing my duty
But missin' it right there
So as days go by
I'm counting every minute
Wishing I was home
For sure with you in it
But the soldiers that
I'm runnin' with
Are ready to blitz
This ain't no video
This is just as real as it gets
I made some lifelong friends
Holdin' down the front line
And girl I can't wait
To get back in your sunshine

(As days go by) I'm missing you baby
Patiently waiting
For you
To hold you
To thrill you
To feel you
Tender kisses
Give you the love you've been missing
Boy I can't wait til you come back home
To have you all alone(As Days go by)

I'm missing you baby
Patiently waiting
For you
To hold you
To thrill you
To feel you
Tender kisses
Give you the love you've been missing
Boy I can't wait till you come back home
To have you all alone (As days go by)

Now as days go by
My time is spent reflecting
On all the lil' things
You said I was neglecting
They say you never know
What you have until it's gone
Didn't know back then
But I will from now on
When I try to channel out
All the fear and the stress
I picture me and you rollin'
Looking dressed to impress
And to know you'll be there
When I'm back from Iraq
And feel good to know
A real chica I have on my back

Give everybody huggs
And tell em' I really miss em '
And your boy be back
When I'm through with my mission

Give everybody huggs
And tell em' I really miss em'
And your boy be back
When I'm through with my mission

(As days go by) I'm missing you baby
Patiently waiting
For you
To hold you
To thrill you
To feel you
Tender kisses
Give you the love you've been missing
Boy I can't wait til you come back home
To have you all alone(As days go by)

I'm missing you baby
Patiently waiting
For you
To hold you
To thrill you
To feel you
Tender kisses
Give you the love you've been missing
Boy I can't wait till you come back home
To have you all alone
As days go by

As days go by

One day we gon' get it together one day we gon' get it together
One day we gon' get it together one day we gon' get it together (As days go by)
One day we gon' get it together one day we gon' get it together
One day we gon' get it together one day we gon' get it together

As days go by
