Just In Case

I'm writing this now in case one day you might forget
The love burning in my heart since the first day together that we spent

And how it grew with each sunset and sunrise
Knowing forever then I'd be lost in sweet hazel eyes

You give me more than any other man can ever give
You helped open my eyes to truth and provided a loving place to live

A family, too, in a way, that I never thought could be
I know that with God's love, it is all I'll ever need

So how could I ever ask for anything more?
Pursue your dreams, my dear, and then my heart will surely soar

Even if we are never seen together under God's sovereign eyes
If you are truly happy, not one tear will I dare cry

I know that I can never forget the first gifts of your heart
Nor each new one that one day you might impart

So read this if you are ever in any doubt
Remember your friendship I can never live without

And I will sit quietly here and confidently smile
I trust the Lord even if you never wait at the end of the aisle

But I pray that you shall leave your father, joined to a wife
And we'd become one flesh till the end of our physical life.
