Zac Charles (full name - Zachary Wayne Charles Short)
wrote and performed his heart grabbing song, "Until I Get Home", while serving in Afghanistan
as a combat medic in March 2011. The song is for his
wife waiting for him . . . and fellow troops with a
wife, girlfriend, husband, or boyfriend waiting for them
too . . . And it should remain a touching reminder for
troops and their special loved ones waiting for the
return home from deployment.
Zac Charles' live performance of "Until I Get Home" in his barrack's room in
March 2011.

service for our beloved, great America . . . with best
wishes for a safe return home and success in your country
music career. David Bancroft, USA Patriotism! founder (August 2011)
LYRICS
Verse 1: Honey I know that I've had to be away Far
too long, you shouldn't have to live this way On your
own, in that dark and lonely place I know you need me
there
Chorus: So I'll be on my way home
Just as soon as my job is done I'll never quit what I
start Which is why I'm still here, It's why you still
have my heart And I can't promise you much, But
you'll always have my love Keep it close to your
soul, Wherever you go, until I get home
Verse
2: Honey I know, that you want a normal life Where
I come home, and cuddle up to you each night But
while I'm gone, you give me strength to carry on It's
your love that makes me strong
Chorus Repeat
Bridge: They say home is where the heart is,
That's where I wanna be But if the Good Lord says
it's time to go Please don't worry about me
Chorus: Cuz I'll be on my way home and I can hear
Him say "well done" And I will wait for you my love
And you'll never be alone Girl, just keep on holding
on Until I get home
Until I Get Home
