If you've never heard the Faith Hill/Reba duet from Reba's 2007 Duets album, know that it has matching sets of lyrics from two neighbors ... one who has a yellow ribbon on the gate because she has a loved one serving overseas ... and one who has this to say after seeing that ribbon:
The yellow ribbon on my neighbors gate
Always reminds me that someone's awake just like me
I hear the sirens and I watch the news
He laughs and leaves with his gun and his blue uniform
And I pray God keeps him safe from harm
And I cry cause I'm all alone
And the nights get so cold and long
And I try not to think he won't come home
But I'm sleeping with the telephone
Seems appropriate a decade later in these modern times ...
TO ALL THOSE WITH LOVED ONES WHO SERVE IN ONE WAY OR ANOTHER:
