As Days Go By
Baby Bash Lyrics

As days go by
With each passing day

I'm missing you baby
I feel lonely and yearn for your presence

Patiently waiting
I am waiting eagerly but calmly

For you
For your return or arrival

To hold you
To embrace you

To thrill you
To excite and arouse you

To feel you
To touch and feel your body

Tender kisses
Gentle and loving kisses

Give you the love you've been missing
To offer you the affection and care that you have been longing for

Boy I can't wait till you come back home
I am eagerly looking forward to your return

To have you all alone
To be with you privately and intimately

Now I done came a long way
I have come a long distance

But ain't gone too far
But I haven't gone too far

And hope this love letter don't leave a big scar
I hope this letter expressing my feelings doesn't cause hurt or damage

So baby just hold on
Don't lose hope or give up

Lil' momma just be strong
My dear, stay strong and resilient

Cause no one knew the war would last us so long
Nobody expected this war to continue for as long as it has

The rockets the red glare
Refers to the rocket bombs exploding in the sky

The bombs up in the air
Refers to the bombs being dropped from planes

I'm just doing my duty
I am fulfilling my responsibility

But missin' it right there
But I am missing the people and things that matter to me now

So as days go by
With each passing day

I'm counting every minute
I am keeping track of every moment

Wishing I was home
I am wishing to be back home

For sure with you in it
And to be sure that you are there with me

But the soldiers that I'm runnin' with
But the people I am working and fighting alongside

Are ready to blitz
Are prepared to launch a sudden attack

This ain't no video
This is not a game or simulation

This is just as real as it gets
This is as real as it can possibly be

I made some lifelong friends
I have formed strong and lasting friendships

Holdin' down the front line
Defending and protecting the front line of battle

And girl I can't wait
And my dear, I am eagerly looking forward

To get back in your sunshine
To be back in your loving and warm presence

Now as days go by
With each passing day

My time is spent reflecting
I spend my time thinking and contemplating

On all the lil' things
About all the small and seemingly unimportant things

You said I was neglecting
That you pointed out I was ignoring or not paying enough attention to

They say you never know
There is a common saying that states you can never fully comprehend

What you have until it's gone
How important something is until it is no longer there

Didn't know back then
I was not aware at that time

But I will from now on
But I have come to understand it now

When I try to channel out
When I attempt to block out or overcome

All the fear and the stress
All the anxiety and pressure

I picture me and you rollin'
I imagine you and I cruising around or having a good time together

Looking dressed to impress
Appearing in stylish and fashionable attire

And to know you'll be there
And to be sure that you will be there for me

When I'm back from Iraq
When I return from my military service in Iraq

And feel good to know
And it will make me happy and content

A real chica I have on my back
That I have a genuine and supportive woman by my side

Give everybody huggs
Please give everyone a hug from me

And tell em' I really miss em '
And let them know how much I miss them

And your boy be back
And I will return

When I'm through with my mission
When I finish fulfilling my duty

One day we gon' get it together one day we gon' get it together
Eventually, we will be able to work things out and make things right

One day we gon' get it together one day we gon' get it together (As days go by)
With each passing day, we move closer to achieving our goal

One day we gon' get it together one day we gon' get it together
We will eventually come together and succeed

One day we gon' get it together one day we gon' get it together
We will work hard and persevere until we accomplish our objective
