You and I

Ask me not to leave you,
Or to return from following after you,
For where you go I will go,
And where you stay I will stay.
Your family will be my family,
And your dreams will be my dreams.
Where you die,
I will die.
And there I will be buried.
May the Lord do with me and more,
If anything but death parts you from me.
Together forever you and me,
Shantae and J.c
