She could be married to a regular guy
Someone who works five days a week from nine to five
How easy would her life have been
But no she fell in love with him

She wrestles with their children day after day
And tries to make ends meet on military pay
They say he could be home by fall
She lives and breathes for his next call

Somewhere there's a wife that's crying
For a husband somewhere fighting
For a cause he might be dying for

All the things that she goes through
Never make the evening news
So I'm singing this for all of those
Unsung heroes

He left a good job Fifth Avenue
So she could do what she felt
She was called to do
And now she's half way 'round the world
If you think he don't miss that girl

Somewhere there's a husband crying
For a wife somewhere fighting
For a cause she might be dying for

All the things that he goes through
Never make the evening news
So I'm singing this for all of those
Unsung heroes

Mothers and fathers daughters and the sons
They fight the toughest battles without a gun

Somewhere there's someone that's crying
For love one somewhere fighting
For a cause they might be dying for
All the things that they go through
Never make the evening news
So I'm singing this for all of those
Unsung Heroes
