Song Description
I met a soldier in a bar who was just off the plane from Iraq and he told me much he missed the sun rising in america and how special it was for him to see it again. And the song 'Gentle on my mind' by glen campbell kept reminding him of his home.

Lyrics
American Sunrise Kenny Bogan
Nothings like this American Sunrise
To make me feel like I belong
And it?s this American Sunrise
Tells me I?ve been away much too long
I took the red eye home from Bagdad
And I haven?t slept all night
I?ve been through so many changes
Since I last looked up at this sky
Tried to find a reason for leaving
Why I left my past behind
But in the words I loved from a distance
You remain gentle on my mind
