When I Look At You

When I look at you, I see tomorrow
all the ﷯good﷯ inside me
but still there is sorrow
when I look at you I see what might have been
I don't know, where can I begin
when I look at you, i see the world inside
all of the strength you can not hide
for you I'd give up all my pride
I still stay awake and cry
no matter where i am in my life
my ﷯love﷯ for you is not sacrificed
no matter what else i may do
when the day is done
I'll look at you
