I think it references someone who wants to console their kids, but they really aren't coming home. The line at the beginning, "Just to hear her say I love you one more time" implies that it will be the last time the speaker hears her say that. The speaker may be dead already or about to be killed. Maybe the speaker is already dead, which would make his/her spoken omnipresence a reality.
