Long overdue.
I dream of the celebration
When Victory is mine at last
It’ll be a great celebration
Greater than any in my past.
All of my family and all of my friends
Will celebrate with me
What a happy and joyous event
I know it’s going to be.
I want to make all the arrangements myself
I want to foot the bill
I want to invite everyone I love and miss
With hope and belief they all love me still.
I want to celebrate all the holidays and birthdays I’ve missed
My sister’s 50th and last Thanksgiving and Christmas most of all
I want my family and friends back in my life
Making more memories like the ones I recall.
It’s been almost a year since I went away
Never dreaming so much time would fly by
Still I believe I’m where I’m meant to be
For in my heart and on my dreams, I always rely.
There are so many questions I cannot answer
So many reasons I can’t explain
I only know that with this time away
Many things in my life will show good gain.
And really and truly in my heart I believe
I’ll head home before this month is done
Just in time for summer to come in
Bringing much missed laughter and tons of fun.
So as this first week of June
Prepares to head out
I’m feeling more confidence
And daily, less doubt.
So with joy and laughter in my heart
And all these dreams that I hold dear
And so many wonderful days in a row of feeling great
I feel my time for celebrations is very near.
