[Chorus paula deanda]

As days go by

I'm missing you baby

Patiently waiting

For you

To hold you

To thrill you

To feel you

Tender kisses

Give you the love you've been missing

Boy I can't wait till you come back home

To have you all alone (as days go by)

I'm missing you baby

Patiently waiting

For you

To hold you

To thrill you

To feel you

Tender kisses

Give you the love you've been missing

Boy I can't wait till you come back home

To have you all alone

(As days go by)

[Baby bash]

Now I done came a long way

But ain't gone too far

And hope this love letter don't

Leave a big scar

So baby just hold on

Lil' momma just be strong

Cause no one knew the war

Would last us so long

The rockets the red glare

The bombs up in the air

I'm just doing my duty

But missin' it right there

So as days go by

I'm counting every minute

Wishing I was home

For sure with you in it

But the soldiers that

I'm runnin with

Are ready to blitz

This ain't no video

This is just as real as it gets

I made some lifelong friends

Holdin' down the front line

And girl I can't wait

To get back in your sunshine

[Paula deanda]

(As days go by)

I'm missing you baby

Patiently waiting

For you

To hold you

To thrill you

To feel you

Tender kisses

Give you the love you've been missing

Boy I can't wait til you come back home

To have you all alone (as days go by)

I'm missing you baby

Patiently waiting

For you

To hold you

To thrill you

To feel you

Tender kisses

Give you the love you've been missing

Boy I can't wait till you come back home

To have you all alone

(As days go by)

[Baby bash]

Now as days go by

My time is spent reflecting

On all the lil' things

You said I was neglecting

They say you never know

What you have until it's gone

Didn't know back then

But I will from now on

When I try to channel out

All the fear and the stress

I picture me and you rollin'

Looking dressed to impress

And to know you'll be there

When I'm back from iraq

And feel good to know

A real chica I have on my back

Give everybody huggs

And tell em' I really miss em '

And your boy be back

When I'm through with my mission

Give everybody huggs

And tell em' I really miss em'

And your boy be back

When I'm through with my mission

[Paula deanda]

(As days go by)

I'm missing you baby

Patiently waiting

For you

To hold you

To thrill you

To feel you

Tender kisses

Give you the love you've been missing

Boy I can't wait til you come back home

To have you all alone (as days go by)

I'm missing you baby

Patiently waiting

For you

To hold you

To thrill you

To feel you

Tender kisses

Give you the love you've been missing

Boy I can't wait till you come back home

To have you all alone

As days go by

As days go by

[Baby bash]

One day we gon' get it together one day we gon' get it together

One day we gon' get it together one day we gon' get it together

(As days go by)

One day we gon' get it together one day we gon' get it together

One day we gon' get it together one day we gon' get it together

As days go by
