As Long As You'Re Near

The first time we met, I could see,
That you and I, were meant to be,
Your eyes were so gentle, your smile so true,
When you first held my hand, I just Knew.

Now the time has gone by, through laughter and tears,
These days I shall cherish, for years upon years,
Those memories we have, shall never fade,
For those are the steps, that we have made.

That was the past, the future is near,
I anxiously wait, for what will appear,
New homes, more laughter, and children so dear,
Everything will be wonderful, as long as you're near.
