I'll Walk With You

I’LL WALK WITH YOU WHERE YOU MUST GO,

AND SHARE WITH YOU, YOUR JOYS AND SORROWS.

WHEREVER LIFE MUST CARRY YOU,

I’LL BE THERE TO SHARE YOUR WORLD WITH YOU.

I CAN’T THINK OF LIFE WITHOUT YOU,

OR BEAR THE THOUGHT OF LOSING YOU.

YOU ARE THE OTHER HALF OF ME,

WHICH MAKES ALL OF ME COMPLETE.

EVEN BEYOND THIS LIFE I PRAY,

YOU’LL SHARE ETERNITY WITH ME SOME DAY.

YOUR WARM EYES SHINE SO BEAUTIFULLY,

YOUR LOVING ARMS HOLD ME TENDERLY,

I’LL RUN MY FINGERS THROUGH YOUR HAIR,

AND THANK GOD THAT YOU ARE THERE.

I’LL GLADLY AND TENDERLY KISS YOUR CHIN,

AND SAY, “I LOVE YOU,” OVER AND OVER AGAIN.

I’LL STILL SEE YOU AS YOU ARE TODAY

EVEN WHEN YOU ARE OLD AND GRAY.

WHEN YOUR STEPS BEGIN TO SLOW,

AND LINES AND WRINKLES BEGIN TO SHOW,

WHEN YOU ARE WEARY AND NEED TO NAP,

I’LL LAY YOUR HEAD UPON MY LAP.

AND WHEREVER YOUR FEET SHOULD CHOOSE TO GO,

I’LL JOYFULLY REJOICE IN THE CHANCE TO FOLLOW.
