LOOK BESIDE YOU

by Sir Lancelot


_______________

                                                Today if you discover that the future isn't clear,
                                                If your smiles turn to frowns and your laughter into tears,
                                                Take a look beside you, I am always there.
                                                Rest your head on my shoulder and tell me all your cares.

                                                When you tire from the race and it seems you can't go on,
                                                Just take a look beside you, I'll carry your baton.
                                                While you dodge the bombs and bullets on life's bumpy battlefield,
                                                Slip your hands in mine, I'm beside you as your shield.

                                                Though struggles get you down and no sympathy is shown,
                                                Take a look beside you and see you're not alone.
                                                I'll always hold you up, in the darkness I'm your light.
                                                Marriage means forever, even in the blackest night.

                                                As you grow in beauty, with grandkids at your feet,
                                                Quietly they'll sit there and wait for you to speak.
                                                Anticipation builds, your words ring loud and true,

"Love your wives and husbands and Love will see you through."
                                                While years slip by unnoticed, so often as they do,
                                                Rest secure in me and always look beside you.
