to be the brightest star in your moonlit sky,
to be the soft tissue that dries your eyes,
to be the truth among the lies,
to be the ears that hear your cries.
to be the tree that gives you shade,
to be the gift that gives you aid,
to be the clown in your parade,
to be the sugar in your lemonade.
to be that place you go for fun,
to be your someone when you're alone,
to be the voice you hear on the phone,
to be who's there when everyone's gone.
to be the wind that cools your face,
to be the leather that matches your lace,
to be the loser when you need to race,
to be your card when you need an ace.
to be the someone you want to be kissing
to be the someone you're always missing
to be your pleasant thought when you're reminiscing
to be your best friend that's beside you listening,
to be the shadow that follows your light,
to be the string on the end of your kite,
to stop the wrongs and make them right,
while bringing you joy all through the night.
to be the sand you walk upon,
to be your diamond when you have none,
to be the colors of your setting sun,
to be your sandman when the day is done.
to be the pouring rain that covers your skin,
to be the object of your naughtiest sin,
to be at your side when you need to begin,
never to leave until time is at its end.
to be the hand wrapped in your glove,
to be the lyrics of the song you love,
to be the one you're always thinking of,
to be an answered prayer from God above,
Yes all these things I wish to be,
from this moment eternally,
but alas I'll never be what you truly need,
until you are here for me to see.
Until then be assured I'll patiently wait,
and continue to care about you while I await,
for the time you'll pass through that locked gate,
where I'll be waiting to find out our fate. |
