Day

One day My bones will be weaker My head will hold more grey hairs My eyesight will be poorer Blood will flow slowly in my body My heart beat will be slower And my nerves less sensitive And when that day comes I wanna be by your side Hold your arm through thick and thin Stay up all night Not counting stars, but Looking after our kids, Helping you count the grey hairs in your head, Searching everywhere for the keys Which you ll be hanging around your neck And I will proclaim with even my last breath,"you are the me I never want to lose. " A day will come When we can no longer move swiftly When our backs crack after every step When we argue over where the sun rose from When we criticise all we do now. And when that day come, I wanna move no more But rather be forever by your side Be your help and support For together we will bear every step. I pray that we see so many sunsets Thay someday when we join the stars Someone will stay out all night to watch them. And for all we do now, Be the favourite bedtime stories tou our grandchildren. For when that day come,I will still proclaim with even my last breath, "you are the me i never wanna lose."
