You are my greatest love

My life would have no meaning without you

In the quiet of the night,

In the warmth of the sun,

When falling rain nourishes the earth

Or the moon and stars light up the darkness

I will always be with you

My greatest love

I will watch you as you grow

I will guide you as you travel through life

In your joys and in your sorrows

When you laugh at the wonders of your world

When you open up to new beginnings

Alive and positive at what life has to offer

With courage and faith in both hands

I will always be with you

My greatest love

 

At your times of success and celebration

Or moments of anguish of how things might turn out

In the midst of your gatherings

As you walk through the beauty around you

Or wonder which path to take or decision to make

And struggle with doubt and uncertainty

You will hear the music and know what to do

I will always be with you

My greatest love

 

You will see your beauty in the still waters

The truth and purity of your thoughts

The kindness that is deep in your soul

Your laughter will echo around you

Through the passage of time

I will see you all together like snapshots of old

And catch the looks that belong to only you

I will always be with you

My greatest love
