I would love you forever

I Would travel a million miles

I would move heaven and earth

Just to see you smile…

… Those are somethings I would have said

When I was young and naïve

But age is a humbling teacher

As I have come to realize

I will stand by your side

I love to see you sleep

I would hold your hand forever

Oh, how Did I dream of these

… For now I know

That we come alone

And we leave in silence

And I could not be with you

No matter how much I cared

I could not buy you happiness

Or make you love me at all

So here I stand, promising nothing

Not on my knees, no ring in my presence

All I say is Darling, if you care

I am here with you now,

And I hope you say Yes…
