Story well told.  Well sung.  Everyone wrote letters like this while in a war zone just in case.

i know this is a day late but 11/09/01 never forget, well it's an hour late for me as it's the 12th now, but I respect our fallen brothers and sisters I may be British but Americans are still our allies, so I respect their sacrifices too, I have two veteran friends, one served 7 years in the us army from 2014-2020 and a marine friend who served from 2013-2015, he was blown up in Afghanistan, so both of them have gained my respect, thank you to all who died for us, who made the ultimate sacrifice, the ones who didn't come home and the ones who did, thank you for your service

Time To Roam

Some songs don’t come from promises of forever.
They come from the quiet truth that nothing in this life lasts.

This one is for Wendy for the forty-plus years of laughter, struggle, and love we’ve shared, from Chicago winters to Carolina skies. It’s for the family that grew out of that love: our children, and our three grandsons, each on their own path, each a reminder that what we’ve built goes on.

The song doesn’t hide from the hard truth: time runs out, and one day, one of us will be left carrying the silence. But it also holds the comfort that love outlasts the moment. One of us will whisper, while the other holds the song and in that, the music never truly ends.

[Verse 1]

It’s not the photographs we framed on the wall
Or the moves from Chicago to Carolina fall
It’s not the miles we traveled or the house that we lost
Not the bills we paid down or the bridges we crossed

It’s the way you stood steady when I lost my song,
Your quiet reminder of where I belong.

[Chorus]

It’s the truth that our road has an ending
One of us will walk this path alone
If we’re blessed, we’ll watch our grandsons growing
And rest where distance no longer cuts to the bone
Maybe the years will grant us gentle mercy
One of us will whisper, while the other holds the song

[Verse 2]

So I’ll work ’til the day they give me time to rest
Pray for strength and mercy, nothing more, nothing less
If the day should come that leaves one chair alone
The tune we kept will find the one at home

[Bridge]

Two grandsons grown, their lives taking flight
Another close by, learning new ways to shine bright
Each in their journey, they carry our song
Proof that the love we’ve built keeps moving on

[Final Chorus]

It’s the truth that our road has an ending
But what we’ve built will keep on living strong
The good Lord has kept us, may He grant us more
We’ll hold on ’til the twilight calls us home
Maybe the years will grant us gentle mercy
One of us will whisper, while the other holds the song

It’s the truth that our road has an ending
One of us will whisper, while the other holds the song

One of Us Will Whisper
