All of My Tomorrows
I need you.
I need you for all of my tomorrows
So I may understand my yesterdays
But yet bear the pains and sorrows
For future brighter days.
Future days not bright enough for me
to look at and determine why
Or wonder then plainly see
Even when plans fold and die.
Even when heavy in spirit so
I need you then
Before I get too old
Perhaps just a friend.
A hug, a kiss, a peck on the cheek
Some kind of embrace
To raise my peak
This is all I ask face to face.
I need you for all my tomorrows
So I may understand my yesterdays
But yet bear the pains and sorrows
For future brighter days.
