Dear Lord ,Why Me?

When I lay beside you,
I hold you really close,
I wonder as I look at you,
Is it me you love the most.

Will we grow old together,
Will you always need me dear,
Will I always be the one in your heart,
Tell me dear, you'll always care. 

I know that it's no joke,
For lives are way to short you see,
And often in my prayers,
I ask, dear Lord, Why Me? 

The many different changes,
That we will go through in life,
Remembering how close we were,
As a husband and a wife.

Please don't ever stop loving me,
For Darling I always need to know,
That it is me who will be in your life,
 No matter what you do or where you go.

Life will do cruel things to us,
Slow changes that are true ,
Again I'll ask, Dear Lord, Why Me?
What is happening to me and you.

The tears will begin to flow,
You'll try to make me smile,
But then is when I realize,
The smile is for just a while.

But life will continue through
the ages as we grow in life,
But I'll always need to know dear,
That you'll love me as your wife.
