it's by a guy country singer and said something about a soldier Its Called "If your reading this" by Tim Mcgraw
If you鈥檙e reading this
My momma is sitting there
Looks like I only got a one way ticket over here
I sure wish I could give you one more kiss
War was just a game we played when we were kids
Well I鈥檓 laying down my gun
I鈥檓 hanging up my boots
I鈥檓 up here with God
And we鈥檙e both watching over you
So lay me down
In that open field out on the edge of town
And know my soul
Is where my momma always prayed where it would go.
If you鈥檙e reading this I鈥檓 already home.
If you鈥檙e reading this
Half way around the world
I won鈥檛 be there to see the birth of our little girl
I hope she looks like you
I hope she fights like me
Stand up for the innocent and the weak
I鈥檓 laying down my gun
Hanging up my boots
Tell dad I don鈥檛 regret that id follow in his shoes
So lay me down
In that open field out on the edge of town
And know my soul is where my momma always prayed where it would go
If you鈥檙e reading this, I鈥檓 already home
If you鈥檙e reading this, there is going to come a day
You move on and find someone else and that鈥檚 okay
Just remember this
I鈥檓 in a better place
Soldiers live in peace and angels sing amazing grace
So lay me down
In that open field out on the edge of town
And know my soul is where my momma prayed where that it would go
If you鈥檙e reading this
If you鈥檙e reading this
I鈥檓 already home I think it's George Canyon's "I Want You to Live" It's called "Lay Me Down" by Tim McGraw.
So sorry...got distracted (I was singing while I was typing!). It's called "If You're Reading This" by Tim McGraw. It's a really sad story about a letter that a soldier wrote to his wife, which she's only supposed to read if he doesn't come home. Damn that is one sad song.
Girl for God got it right. |
