As the leaves fall
And the warmth fades
And you’re struggling to stand tall–
I will be here.
I will be here
Even when you tell me to go.
Even when I’m tired
Of the same ol’ things we know.
Through the fights
And the inevitable tears.
Through the changing of brand new leaves
And the rest of our years.
And I know you’ll be here too.
Through all the drama that will ensue
And the eye-rolling
that you’ll witness a time or two…
Because I’m yours
And you’re mine.
That alone makes
My entire world brightly shine.
If a time ever comes when the leaves
Don’t grow back
And I’ve lost you to the the rain,
Or rather love,
That we lack.
If a time ever comes when the weather
Wears us down,
Like the pounding of rain
eroding a rock,
And you slip away from me
As on heaven’s doors you knock–
I will be here.
Beautiful!
