My Son Made Me Cry Today (in a good way)

So, during school today, Nathan calls me over to him and asks me to listen to this song. It's called London sung by Brandon Heath. It made me cry. Nate asked if this is how I feel when Chad is gone. It was interesting that in the song it says 6 nights and 7 days till he comes back and that's exactly what it's been since Chad left. One more week and we should play it again because it will be 6 nights and 7 days till he returns.

Lyrics to London :

My train pulled in to Waterloo
I found myself wishing you
Were here with me in London
Standing on the river Thames
Taking photographs of Parliament
And old Big Ben was ringing

You know it’s everything that I imagined it would be
I had no idea that it would feel this empty

Where are you tonight
While I stand here and cry
Watching double-decker buses pass me by
And to tell you the truth
It’s all that I can do
To keep from jumping a plane that’s headed home
To you

I took a stroll down Abbey Road
Tried to peak inside the studio’s
And somewhere along the way I bought you flowers
And a pocket map of the Underground
Cause You and I both know I get turned around
I’m so lost without you

Though it’s everything that I imagined it would be
I had no idea that it would feel this empty

Chorus

6 long nights and seven days I’ll cross the pond back to the states
I can’t wait

Where are you tonight while I stand here and cry
Watching all the black umbrellas pass me by
And to tell you the truth it’s all that I can do
To keep from jumping on a plane headed home
So I’m jumping on a plane headed home to you
