Cover art for When You're Gone lyrics by Avril Lavigne

I am a soon to be fiance of an A1C (united states air force) airman. Before I even watched the video to this song online, I would replay this song on the cd over and over. After watching the video, I can completely relate to that part of this video. It is so much harder than it looks to tell him it's going to be alright and act like everything is fine when he leaves. Because they have so much to worry about, then need to know we are behind them. When friends say "I would never date a military man" I just shake my head. It takes so much but when they get off that bus or plane and run into our arms, it's so worthwhile knowing that he is not just any hero, he is my hero. I love you Pete.
