JUST ONE WISH
vV1
She works the late shift
at Sloppy Joes
She tries her best to be there for
her kids.
When she comes home
She's given them the world
and tried to be the best
mom that she can be
now her one wish is for her
oldest to come home from
the U.S. Army
Chorus:
She doesn't ask for much
Just one phone call as a gift.
Just one more moment
that her heart can't miss.
Just one letter with a written
XOXO kiss.
All she wants is to see her
son one more time.
All she wants is Just one Wish.

Now time passes and
her two youngest are growing up
One is in the NAVY the other
in the National Guard.
Her oldest son is serving in
Basra Iraq
Oh what she'd do if she could
just have her babies back.
But she knows that
can't happen
and they're growing up
And as they head off to the battlefield
She holds them in her arms
and with a mothers' love
Wishes them the best of luck.
And before she loses them for the
next few years.
She holds them in her arms and
gives each of them a kiss.
Just one more moment with her boys
her heart can't miss.
