After All

After all of the hurt,
The secrets and the lies,
You still love me.
You're still by my side.

After all of the pain
And all of the tears,
You still plan on staying
For many more years.

After all of our problems,
There's still happiness.
Sometimes it hurts,
But I can't walk away from this.

There is no one else
On this earth for me.
We were made for each other.
Why can't you see?

You think you don't deserve me,
But I don't deserve you.
You're too good to me,
Despite what you do.

We've been through so much,
Seen both sunshine and rain.
There's still so much left,
But I know we'll stand the pain.
