I'll Be Here

It's alright to shake
'cause darling if you dont know
I'll be still for you

Fall if you must
Throw that pride away
I'll be here with you all the way

Show me your flaws
Show me your demons
I'll once more wake your sleeping angels

Go to battles my love
Have your journey of faith
My arms are home waiting for you    

And when you lose your legs
And could no longer walk
I'll feel the sand and grass for you

I'll hold on for as long as I can
Even when those arms of yours    
Could no longer hold mine

And you'll watch through my eyes
The joy and pride we've watered from the start
And till you'll lose grip, I'll forever be here.

A very lovely, caring write Sarah. It seems to be about someone with a progressively debilitating condition.
