**********
While you laid there sleeping,
I never stopped watching over you.
While you stood there weeping,
My heart was steadfast and true.
When you tried to sneak away,
I wouldn't stay behind.
And now that we've survived another day,
I'm glad that you didn't change my mind.
I will never turn my back on you,
For you mean to much to me.
The devotion I have for you is true,
That is obvious to see.
As we quietly stand here,
Unsure of where to turn.
I wipe away a tear,
And for our innocence lost I yearn.
No matter what happens now,
I will stand by you sir.
At the moment I'm not sure how,
But we will be together.
