Before this night ends
There's something I must tell you.
We were married for so long
And happiness wrapped us through.
Our kids were now old
They all got lives of their own.
I can see they are happy
Though some problems were at bay.
But I trust that we taught them
Everything they need to survive
Im proud of the persons that they are now
Im proud of everything they tried to achieve and have achieved.
But you know what Im proudest of?
Your hand that is still holding mine.
Im proud that we've stand through the test of time.
Im proud that we're together through and through
Im happy that with us forever is true
Im not at all attractive now
My beauty has faded for so long.
But your grip says otherwise
Your stare still feels the same.
Remember I used to ask you if your love is true?
And you always smile and say that of course you do.
Don't get me wrong I really believe in you.
But time just changes things
And there are days I just can't help but doubt.
But I had enough of doubting.
Because if you never loved me
Your hands should have never been holding me tonight.
Gripping hard, asking me to stay.
Your eyes... pleading me to fight.
But this disease I have can no longer be cured.
And Im just but human though my love for you is pure
I wanted to say thank you but tubes are in my mouth
Its so sad that there are things that I kept and now left unsaid.
I hope though that I have shown you enough proof
That my love for you is too great to be expressed in words
And though my weak body tonight is giving up the fight.
I swear, honey, tonight doesn't mean goodbye.
