We are one

You do not demand

that I have the ability

to say sweet words

or sing you praises

to please your ears.  

You do not require that I

be able to afford sumptuous dinners

or buy you diamond rings

or a dozen red roses

to please your eyes

For you know

I will be right here beside you

Whenever you need me

Through rain, shine or haze

Through health or sickness

Through good days or bad

Through thick and thin

No sweet words, precious gems

Are needed to represent

Our sacred bond of love

For you and I,

we are one

And till the end of the world

Do we part
