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
