I am joining with Drew @ The Tattooed Book Geek, the man behind this meme and Claire @ A Knight Reads, this week with Music Monday.
It was the boy’s birthday and I thought what better way than to celebrate my music monday by sharing the song from our wedding! I gave him a list of songs to choose from some of the bands we liked – Nickelback, Shinedown, Theory of A Deadman and Blackstone Cherry, I also snuck in Bruno Mars….well he chose this and boy did he choose good!
Now there is no official music video but someone made a video as a tribute to the military and their families and I thought this was quite fitting to share because this was one of the reasons I chose this song!
The Video
The Lyrics
You are not alone tonight
Imagine me there by your side
It’s so hard to be here so far away, from you
I’m counting the days ’till
I’m finally done
I’m counting them down, yeah, one by one
It feels like forever ’till I return to you
But it helps me on those lonely nights
It’s that one thing that keeps me alive
Knowing that you wait for me
Ever so patiently
No one else knows the feeling inside
We hang up the phone without saying goodnight
Because it’s the sound of your voice that brings me home
It’s never been easy to say
But it’s easier when I’ve gone away
Knowing that you wait for me
Ever so patiently
Yeah, you’re everything I’ve ever dreamed of having and
It’s everything I need from you just knowing that you wait for me
What I’d give
What I’d do
Knowing I’m not there for you
Makes it so hard to leave
What I’d give
What I’d do
Anything to get me home to you
And this time I’ll stay
And you wait for me
Ever so patientlyYeah, you’re everything I’ve ever dreamed of having and
It’s everything I need from you just knowing that you wait for me
