love and bide

a hand to hold when things look down, and no one seems to care, a shoulder that is strong enough, for the burdens we must bear, a dream that reaches far and wide, so both of us can dare, a promise i will love and bide, that's all i have to share, a chance to sail among the stars, that few will ever see, to feel the deepest missing you, that most think cannot be, a heart that beats for only one, and loves you fast and true, a promise i will love and bide, that's all i have for you, these things i have to give to you, their value isn't much, just things that you can barely see, and rarely ever touch, a hand to hold when we're alone, and no one seems to care, a gentle touch to reassure, and tell you i'm still there, i try my best to reminisce, our dreams that all came true, a promise i will love and bide, that's all i have for you, my promise i will love and bide, this i give to you
