• She asked me...

    "Do you love me?
    Honestly and true
    In my time of need...
    Can I depend on you?"

    "In my darkest hour
    When I'm in the deepest despair...
    Can I count on you
    To still be there?"

    "When the vices of life
    Attempt to tear me down
    Can I rely on you?
    Will you still be around?"

    I could tell she wanted more than just a simple answer
    I could see it in her eyes
    But it was certain no matter what I said...
    The answer would make her cry

    I pull her closer to me
    And I try my very best
    I look at her and tell her...
    "Put your ear to my chest"

    "Listen closely to the rhythm
    Listen carefully to every beat
    Listen and you will hear...
    A melody so sweet"

    "It is the sound of my heart
    That feeds the blood through my veins
    And if you listen close enough
    You can hear it calling your name"

    "I promise that I will always be here
    And this melody will always be this sweet
    because you are the very reason...
    My heart continues to beat"
