Until I'm Home

Me and my wife lost our daghter May 2026 and this is the song I wrote for them. [Verse 1] I hate the miles between us, The nights that stretch too long. I’d give anything to be beside you, To hear our familiar song. To hold your hands inside of mine, To look into your eyes, To see your smile, hear you laughing— To have you here tonight. [Chorus] I want to hold you, kiss you, Tell you we’ll get through. But first, let’s mourn our Millie And the life we dreamed her into. On May seventeenth, our world changed; Our hearts broke in two. I’m far away, but every part of me Is there grieving with you. [Verse 2] I wasn’t there to hold you When we lost our little girl. I carry that ache through every day, Like a weight against the world. Months have passed, and still I can’t Come home and share your side; So I talk to you across the distance With all this love inside. [Chorus] I want to hold you, kiss you, Tell you we’ll get through. But first, let’s mourn our Millie And the life we dreamed her into. On May seventeenth, our world changed; Our hearts broke in two. I’m far away, but every part of me Is there grieving with you. [Bridge] Some days this separation Feels like more than I can bear. I’m afraid I’m losing pieces Of the life we used to share. But Millie lives in every tender thing, In every love we knew. And when I finally make it home, I’ll grieve—and heal—with you. [Final Chorus] I want to hold you, kiss you, Hear your voice again. See the smile that lights your face, Hear your laughter in the end. We’ll say her name together, And remember all our love. Until I’m home, please know my heart Has never left the two of you. [Outro] I hate the miles between us. I hate that I can’t be there. But Millie is loved, and you are loved— And I’m holding you in prayer.
