How love sometime's changes. |
My Love I Pledged To You It was on a cold November day I pledged my love to you, We were both so young and in love It seemed like the right thing to do. The carefree life we had known Slowly melted away, We just did what we had to do Day after day. The days turned into years And it seemed they just drug by, We tried to make the best of it We had pledged our love till the day we die. Sometimes, even when together I was so lonely, I didn't know what to do, And often I would look at you And knew you felt the same way too. After 37 years you got sick And didn't have long to live, I kept you home and took care of you I gave you all that I could give. Somehow I thought If I did everything just right, You would get better, but you died Eleven months later, In the middle of the night. It's been almost 8 long years Since you went away, Now I know a different kind of loneliness As I try to get through another day. I often wonder what God has in store For the remainder of my life, Will I finish out my life alone Or become some other man's wife. I have grown wiser over the years And won't pledge my love on a whim, He will have to show me He loves me as much as I do him. If love never comes to me And my days are to be spent alone, I hope all those I leave behind know They were loved, As I make my journey home. |
