  • love bagpipes!!!!!!!!

  • this is a nice song

  • what a voice this is a nise song

  • i cant wait to see my sailor this summer :)

  • @AshMarksTM My Fiance's(my Fiance is also a Marine who is about to deploy) brother is a Marine on the USS Bataan too! I bet you're sooo excited about them coming HOME!!! They've been gone long enough, huh?!

  • Cannot Wait For My Sailor To Return home to Me Next week. this song really touches my heart! <3

  • WRS: Youre an amazing Man and i love you. I hope you see this. Long distance suxs but Im stickin it out with you. I know we can make this work. Is this how i planned my high school love to be like? No but i wouldnt trade it for anyone else. Well see each other within 3 months. I MISS YOU and I LOVE YOU MOSTEST!!! haha.

  • This song is for my girlfriend....

    you know who you are baby i love you so much. We are long distance right now but you know its not what i want. i will be back in your arms soon my love. And i will remain faithful and honest to you and only you while were apart

    - Yours forever and always <3

  • Josh Turner, the man who can put what every service man wants to tell his lady before he leaves, into a beautiful song.

  • A very special song that touches me deeply.....

    Some day you will marry another.... Remember this song... it will be for you..

    Always, Michael....

  • I miss my sailor, but when he comes home and we get married, we will dance to this song. I can't wait to be married to my best friend, my hero, my soldier... my everything. And the moment I see him again, all the pain and loneliness of the last three months will melt away.

    Distance is not for the fearful, it is for the bold. It is for the person who knows a good thing when they see it, even though they don't see it nearly enough.

  • good song Josh turner <3 :]

  • sorry to burst your country bubble this was written by Roger cook who is an english songwriter and actually if you listen closely its a very english sounding song . still only Josh Turner can pull it off .

  • I recently got the music notes and lyrics to this song tattoo'd on my ribs. To remind me that no matter how long I have to wait, love will always be worth it and will erase any of the prior heart breaks I have felt.

    "Oh the longer the waiting the sweeter the kiss"

  • My husband is a sailor and has been gone for six months and this song is so perfect

  • 5 people couldn't wait for the kiss =(

  • I find the melody very similar to Bonnie Wood Green. Josh Turner's awesome, but I hope it's just a coincidence and he wasn't copying another war-time themed song.

  • @JacksCZ452 I don't think he copied from "Bonnie Wood Green." I personally can't evern hear a similarity in the melodies. Even if this song was based on BWG, at least we can be glad Josh didn't write it.

  • @99iloveyou99 I'm Mormon, I know how the whole mission thing works. But just think, those 2 years will be nothing compared to the rest of your lives :) I wish him luck throughout his mission. And to you as well, because I know being apart from the one you love hurts sometimes, but its always worth it

  • My sweet darling Michael, as of next March, we will never have to be apart again. I am so excited, to finally become your wife, even though in my heart I already am. I love you, baby. Love, Amanda H. Williams (Barnett)

  • I have never heard this singer before.

  • My boyfriend is at Basic right now and will be Active Duty army for the next 5 years. I love this song and I miss him.

  • MY SAILOR COMES HOME IN 5 DAYS :D

  • @TheOhhhhkay im so happy for you!

  • I'm going to assume that 5 people accidentally hit the dislike button.

  • Beautiful song. :)

  • I love this song. I thought it should have been released as a single.

  • sounds like my wonderful girl friend and I. Im deploying soon and this is exactly what i told and asked of her. I love the Navy but I love her more. she and the other military girlfriends and wives/boyfriends and husbands are as big of fighters as we are and I wanna thanks you all for your support. HOOYAH!

  • I just slow danced with my hubby in our kitchen before he went to work, only to be disturbed by the crying of our four month daughter. He's been home from Afghanistan since April and in time for her birth in May, we've had our ups and downs since then but we're still madly in love and wouldn't trade our USMC way of life for anything. I love you lover muffin, and thank you for giving me the other love of my life. We would be nothing without you!♥

  • great song sean keane does a great version of it too,

  • perfect song for me and my sailor! <3 i love you pr2 chandler;)

  • This should have hit the top 10 for sure. So touching and sad and with Josh singing it, man what else could you want.

  • I Love Josh Turner, and I LOVE MY SAILOR <3

  • Look out for Christian Kjellvander!

  • I respect you men who leave your loved ones to fight for us. I also think that their spouses are absolutely just as strong to carry on life without their soul mates

  • This is deep...

  • josh turner i love you and love what you do keep it up

  • Its impossible to imagine what goes through a mans head when he leaves to fight for our country. Few words can describe our feelings. Just know that when your loved one leaves you behind, your the only thing going through his mind at all times. We leave for you, and your the only thing we dream of until our return.

  • I think what gets me the most about this song is the bagpipes at the end...I'm Scotts-Irish, and I've always found sad tunes on the bagpipes to be heartwrenching...The lyrics are simply amazing, too.

  • I don't like this song... I LOVE THIS SONG

  • the lyrics are so sweet, i love this song

  • Im a sailors girl, right here (: 65 days till he is home!!! First deployment almost done? Heck yes!

  • Even though my husband is Army, this song still fits. It fits any branch of military. Beautiful song!!! <3 I just don't like the part when he says "you can marry another, that's alright with me." lol I ignore that part, the rest is good :D Josh Turner's voice is gorgeous!! My Soldier sings songs by Josh to me as well. <3

  • My hubby is on the Bataan also!

  • This reminds me of my Sailor, EM3 Krukowski. He makes everyday worth it.

  • this music makes me cry....

    

  • He has such a powerful voice, you cant help but like, if not love, all his songs

  • What kind of basement dwelling Dungeons and dragons freakshows "dislike" this? I'd like to meet you 5, obviously you have no grasp on "relationships" which leads me to believe you're either 10 years old or 32 and live on a diet of Mt. Dew and chips in your mothers basement playing COD and Halo for days on end... hissing at the thought of soap and water.

  • My fiance just left for Navy Boot Camp and this is our song! :) I love you and am so proud of you baby, I cant wait to see you graduate! <3

  • @AshMarksTM My husband is a Sailor on the Bataan <3 <3 <3 Rest assured that the USS Bataan floats on an ocean of prayers!

    

  • @Onwlsi

    My hunny's on the USS Bataan as well :D

  • This is one of the three songs my husband listens to every night before he goes to bed. He's a Marine on the USS Bataan and has been gone for 2 months, and has at least another 7 to go. He proposed to me before his first deployment, just over two years ago, and this is our first as husband and wife... this sound makes me want to cry, but honestly I don't cry often. As much as I miss him I know that he makes me much too happy to shed a sad tear over.

    I love you handsome

    I miss you xoxo

  • @AshMarksTM I have the same issue. I'm a sailor and my fiance showed me this song. Now, I hate country, but I love this song. And I listen to it all the time. Unfortunately, I might get stationed in Japan come mid-May. But I know how you feel from the other side of the water.

  • @AshMarksTM , your comment was really nice. You seem to be a strong woman, and I hope everything is worth the wait! Truly made me worm and happy inside to read the comment, seems like a true love story! All the luck in the world to you and your husband!

  • @AshMarksTM This comment should have the most likes.  This is exactly the type of story that this song is written and so strongly performed for.

  • My sailor deploys tomorrow =/ and will be a new daddy in less than a month. God Bless our military and the sacrifices they make to defend this country. <3

  • my husband is navy as well and i miss him so much and this song just hits the spot.

  • This is an amazing song. Thank you for posting this for everyone to enjoy. It is just amazing. It reminds me of when i have been away from home for a while, home seems that much better. I get to see the ones i love and all we can do is be with each other. Thanks again.

  • "like" because there is not LOVE button :)

  • This is my fave song by Josh <3 x

  • I'm pretty sure his kisses would be just as sweet without the waiting :]

  • hes the only country singer that can have bag pipes in a country song and still make it sound kick ass.

  • Absolutely beautiful!! A very underrated song in my opinin. My favorite from the "Everything Is Fine" CD. (Maybe even all time favorite Josh Turner song) I was very disappointed that it was not released as a single.

  • US Submariner, Fast Attack no come back.

  • US Submariner, Fast Attack no come back.

  • My husband is a United States Sailor. We were separated for 2 years straight, but we are finally together again for the rest of this year. I just wish that he could stay state side for the rest of his time in the Navy. Only time will tell. God bless all you other military wives and girlfriends. I know how hard it can be, so just know that you are some of the strongest women in the US.

    Oh, and I <3 IT3 Cage. : ]

  • i want Scott McCreery to sing this!!!

  • @mbug1000 omg i was thinking the exact same thing!!!

  • Three very lost people....

  • it reminds me of Pocahontas...........

  • I cried haha..

    I miss my best friend <3 :(

  • one of the best song I ever heard

  • Comment removed

  • im crying right now. Josh turner is my fav. ;)

  • josh <3 is hot thumbs up if you agree!

  • A beautiful song by an incredible artist. This song embodies love in such a sweet and wonderful way. It always makes me smile. =)

  • Every time i listened to this song makes me think of my fiance been away for 5 months already. So hard not to see him near to me but the good thing is; the more we didn't see each other everyday the more i realized how much i miss him and love him more deeply!! I know its gonna be worth the waiting and the sweeter it'll be :) miss u sweetheart! see you soon and i love you!

  • @nchle123 I know my swthrt, every day we're apart I realize how much God has blessed me w/ u as my fiancée & how much I love & need u in my life. There's no one on earth I'd rather spend the rest of my life with & I can't wait to start our life together as husband & wife! It's been a long wait so far but every moment brought me closer to you & the Lord is with us every step of the way. I look 4ward 2 that sweet kiss when I return! I love u my darling & the next time I hold u I'm not letting go!

  • Love this song. My fiancee is a US Sailor waiting on his orders. He asked me the other day if I knew why he was sacrificing himself for the Navy. I said, "To protect our country? Because all of your brothers did?" He said, " I'm doing it for all those reasons and more. But most of all, I'm here for you." Thank you all for supporting our troops and continue to pray for them.

  • oh my god i love this song :D <3<3<3<3<3

  • it isn't unusual 

  • this might be JT's most underrated song of his career...so true.

  • My US Navy submariner is gone as we speak. After going through an 8 month Deployment, this underway is not nearly as long, but it's always hard when he leaves. This song reminds me of what a wonderful man he is, how much he sacrifices, and how sweet it will be when he returns! I love you sweetheart <3

  • @dariacollege11

    I know how that is. My fiance is also a submariner. He isn't expected home until early next year. But I'll tell you, he's going to get the longest, sweetest kiss of his life when he steps off that sub!

  • @soulgirlKC gotta love them bagpipes, get u all pumped up!!!

  • This is a nice song & Josh is a great singer.

    Thanks Jim for sending me this one.

    Margaret

  • This song is soo beautiful.... lyrics are soo true!!

  • i love this song 

  • Don't they play bagpipes at military funerals?

  • my fiance is headed out to do a job in the middle east and god it hurts. I miss her so much. I can't wait till she comes home and I can finally hold her again in my arms. The kiss will be so sweet.

  • @soulgirlKC yes. Unusual, isn't it..?

  • @isabellemarie89 why is that unusual ?

  • @DaNaJuJe You don't find that unusual....for this particular genre of music?

  • @isabellemarie89 It's not unusual at all, Country music and Celtic music have their ties through Bluegrass and Folk. Besides the song was written by a Scotsman. :D

  • @isabellemarie89 i reckon it could be, but it's fitting with the whole military side of the song.... it's perfect.

  • @isabellemarie89 It's a traditional celtic song actually- so the bagpipes aren't really unusual for this particular song ;)

  • @isabellemarie89 josh turner is irish

  • @isabellemarie89 i dont. i think it fits in this song.

  • Comment removed

  • @isabellemarie89 It's not unusual, bag pipes are a military thing, this song is about a sailor. so i think they added the bag pipes to connect more to the military part of the song. :)

  • my husband had to leave, just 11 days after we got married.

    were almost half way through the deployment.

    everytime i hear this song, i think of him<3

    i cant wait until the uss carl vinson, brings my husband home!

  • @isabellemarie89 idk, but it's very fitting, with it being a song about the military life

  • @isabellemarie89 It represents that the man this song is about dies. it is common to hear those at a funeral. I will admit though, it is odd to but them into a country song. But I think he tied it in pretty well :)

  • Comment removed

  • @isabellemarie89 i was wondering if it the bagpipes symbolize the speaker's death and that he didn't come back from the sea. Just listening to the bagpipes playing reminds me of when they have bagpipes play Amazing Grace at military memorials and funerals

  • @isabellemarie89 Bagpipes aren't exactly traditional for country music, no. But they are traditional for military funerals, which is probably meant to remind us that for a lot of unfortunate couples, the waiting never ends.

  • =) wow if it counted every time "I've" viewed this there would be twice as many views. It's easy to be proud of a soldier.

  • I listen to this everyday and think of the man of my dreams who is serving in Afghanistan. It gives me hope and makes me smile!! "Next time I hold you I'm not letting go"

  • @crzychk77I thought the same thing when my was over there. Stay strong, he'll be home soon( I hope) good luck and god bless you and yours. You're in my thoughts and prayers.

  • LOOOOVE THIS SONG!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • this song reminds me of my soon to be boyfriend and myself! we go to different schools, and i mean i know its NOTHING compared to having a spouse go to iraq, or have them be in the navy, but it still hurts, and i really think this song describes us(:

  • i loveeeeee this song!

  • Going to miss my sailor.. He is deploying for 7-9 months.. I can't wait for that kiss when he gets back.. Everytime he comes back it's such an oh so sweet one! <3 I love you ABH3 Kal

  • Really loving this song... My boyfriend is a silor and deployed right now.... due home end of july early august.... I miss him sooo very much.

  • awe i really like this song, me and my husband has gone through deployments together. i just wish he didnt specify it to a sailor. Married to a Marine and this would apply but they def arent sailors or soldiers. haha semper fi

  • I love this song

  • Thanks to all you ladies who are so brave while your soldiers and sailors are away. We appreciate their and your sacrifice for our freedom. God bless!

  • miss my soldier more and more every day. he will be on his way home soon. cant wait to see his face. its been 6 long months.
