Already There

The tug on your heart that comes from a child’s innocent question, “When are you coming home?” and the awkward answer, “Soon,” leaves you wanting to get yourself back home…instantly. Lone Star’s song “I’m Already There” comes very close to virtually fulfilling that wish. We hope you will enjoy a reflective and uplifting moment with this video. Being There… Pass It On.

VIDEO TRANSCRIPT

BOY: Mom, when is daddy coming home?
MOM: Daddy misses us too honey.
(phone rings)
MOM: Hello. Hi honey.

MUSIC:
He called her on the road
From a lonely cold hotel room

DAD: Hi honey.

MUSIC:
Just to hear her say ‘I love you’ one more time

MOM: I love you.

MUSIC:
A little voice came on the phone
Said ‘Daddy when you coming home?’

MOM: He’s right here.
BOY: Dad when you gonna come home?

MUSIC:
He said the first thing that came to his mind
I’m already there

DAD: I’m already there.

MUSIC:
Take a look around
I’m the sunshine in your hair
I’m the shadow on the ground
I’m the whisper in the wind
I’m your imaginary friend
And I know I’m in your prayers
Oh I’m already there

DAD: Hey buddy.
BOY: (giggles)

VOICE OVER: Being There... Pass It On.

The first time I saw this I became so emotional but happy. I had the biggest smile on my face that could not compare to all the different memories I have. My heart skips abeat whenever it comes on tv!

I love this! I always miss my father till he gets home. This made me cry!

Sonya from Sonya.Butler@usdoj.gov NOVEMBER 5, 2015
Thank You for another inspiration commercial. It is good to know that the Dad was there spiritual and physical. Just the glitter in the little boys eyes and the way he greeted his dad is more than a happy child to see dad. The little boy is overjoyed knowing that dad was coming home.

Ally from Berwick OCTOBER 5, 2015
My dad doesn't come to see me. I don't really know him that well. I only know from what people tell me. He chooses not to see me.... I haven't seen him in 5 years. I wish he did this for me.

Belen R Urizar from Glendale CA  SEPTEMBER 17, 2015
The first time I ever seen this video was because my son that's 4 years old ran to me and he hold on to my hand and pulled me in to his room and made me stand there looking at the commercial and at him breaking down going in circles looking for his dad. Then my daughter starts crying to then my other baby muyu-muyu breaks down in tears too it hurt so much because it was when me and my husband were going through border line divorcing and till today every time I see it or hear the song I break down in tears remembering that day NOW every time this commercial comes out my children run to me to watch it then they stand and look at me till they see a tear of water come out of my eye and walk away then seconds later one will come and ask mommy why you crying you miss my daddy and i stay quiet and they say to them selfs why is my mom crying out loud if my daddy is still here with us and hasn't left like he used to. I love you kids so much that's what keeps me alive I miss you guys so much my babies.

This hits me hard. My husband has been working in NY since september 2014. Our three year old daughter and I stayed in Puerto Rico. It is now July 2015, we haven't been able to ee eachother because of financial strain. Seeing this video hits very close to home. I live this EVERY single day. In every phone call, in every video chat...its too much.

First time i saw this video my children showed me this video, and i started crying. This video is so much encouraging to my children and me. They father, my husband a navy veteran, who passed away almost 2 years ago got killed. Every time this video comes on my kids starts singing it, because they said it helps them remind them when they dad was over seas and when they use to talk to him over the phone they would always say dad when are you coming home. Now that he has passed away, they still loved the video and watch it because they said they know their dad is home, he is in heaven watching down on them and he will always be in their hearts......
