Lyrics

All is quiet
His tired eyes see figures jotted down
And clothes all strewn around the bedroom floor
Now nothing's adding up and nothing's making sense
She's sleeping like a baby
She doesn't know he wasn't meant for this
I'm missing the war
I'm missing the war all night
Missing the war
I'm missing the war
He drove home again, pissed and beaten
It's really no big deal
It happens all the time, it's no big deal
I'm missing the war
I'm missing the war all night
Missing the war
I'm missing the war
'Til beads of sunlight hit me in the morning
So much time, so little to say
Time may fly and dreams may die
The shaking voice that tells him, "Go!"
Still thinks he might, he knows he won't
I'm missing the war
I'm missing the war all night
Missing the war
I'm missing the war
Missing the war
I'm missing the war
