Lyrics:
Tomorrow at the airport, Love
We mustn’t shed a tear
We’ll present a strong façade
To ease our children’s anxious hearts
For to cry in front of two small boys
Would just confirm their fears
So the rain from Cleveland’s winter clouds
Must substitute for tears
And the rain from Cleveland’s winter clouds
Will substitute for tears
Chorus:
Say I’ll see you soon
And I’ll say I’ll see you soon
And I’ll say that I’ll miss you
And you’ll say that you’ll miss me
But this Midwest winter sky will be so gray
Be so gray
Be so gray
When you leave
I’ll stick a push-pin in the map
To show the boys where Mommy’s at
A thread connecting Cleveland to Fallujah
‘Cross the sea
I’ll think of all of those who’ll die
Beneath the clear, blue desert sky
While endless Midwest winter clouds
Are hanging over me
Chorus
