The video starts with a mail truck dropping off a letter for a Mom who's waiting to hear from her son who is in the Army.
Back at the Army, you see the son reading a letter that was wrote to him by his mother, with his friends listening while he's reading aloud. The son then writes he's fighting for his mother and deceased father. This was the first letter from him.
The chorus talks about what the Mom writes back:"You are good, and you're brave. What a father that you'll be some day. Make it home, make it safe."
In December, the mother receives some news:"I was up on a hill. I was out there alone, when the shots all rang out, and bombs were exploding. That's when I saw him. He came back for me. And though he was captured, a man set me free. That man was your son. He asked me to write to you. I told him I would, oh I swore."
The letter could prove that the son is still alive.
Two years later, in autumn, a car pulled into the mother's driveway. Thinking her son was killed and they're delivering the news, she falls to the ground and cries. She then looks up and sees her son standing in front of her saying "I'm following orders, from all of your letters, and I've come home again." The video ends with the two hugging.
