I often wonder, What would I do,
if I wasn't with you?
What Would I Do?
March 5, 2026
By Rose Marie Rideout
What would I do?
If you couldn't love me.
What would I do?
If you just couldn't see.
How I long to hold you
Close to me every night.
What would I do?
To make our love right.
Honey when I look at you
All I see is both of us.
I'll always be beside you
With you, I'll always fuss.
What would I do?
If you didn't want me.
What would I do?
Tell me what you don't see.
You are the only one darling
The only one that I could love.
A love I would always cherish
Honest as the morning Dove.
That's a tough one for him to answer. My honey does the same. Another big concern of hers is when death takes one of us. Not for me…if I go she'll be fine.
