One
If I live a hundred more years,
I want to be wrapped in your arms;
If I live but one more day,
your life, I will treasure;
for you give me strength,
for you give me hope,
for you give me life.
It is in you that I have become human,
with you, I can see greatness within;
Without you, there is darkness all around,
there is lifelessness,
and there is death.
Never leave my life,
never leave my side;
I will try to follow closely in your footsteps...
I will treasure you, always.
