Seasons

Look for me by the riverbank
As I stand and watch its power
Stand next to me, hold my hand
As the power becomes ours
The current will take our hearts
Where they are meant to go
Don’t let go, we are one
Our lives a single flow

Walk with me on the road less traveled
So rocky and steep we must exert
Let the breeze cool us as we rest
Clearing our minds and keeping us alert
Though we may slip and stumble
Together we stand as strong as pines
Our roots are deep within the rock
Steadfastness during the hard times

Sit next to me on the quiet lakeshore
My head on your shoulder one more time
The autumn of our life is drawing near
As we cling desperately to our prime
Wrap me in your arms for comfort
And I will never leave your side
Fearing the sunset for darkness follows
I will usher you, always your guide

Wait for me at Heaven’s gate
If you reach that peak first
Extend your hand for I am weary
And the last mile’s the worst
Together again we will share the view
This time the splendor will last
My love for you will never end
As we leave darkness in our past
