You, you who has smiled when youĄŻre in pain
|
You who has soldiered through the profane
|
They were distracted and shut down
|
|
So why, why would you talk to me at all
|
such words were dishonorable and in vain
|
their promise as solid as a fog
|
|
and where was your watchman then
|
|
IĄŻll be your keeper for life as your guardian
|
IĄŻll be your warrior of care your first warden
|
IĄŻll be your angel on call, IĄŻll be on demand
|
The greatest honor of all, as your guardian
|
|
you, you in the chaos feigning sane
|
You who has pushed beyond whatĄŻs humane
|
Them as the ghostly tumbleweed
|
|
And where was your watchman then
|
|
IĄŻll be your keeper for life as your guardian
|
IĄŻll be your warrior of care your first warden
|
IĄŻll be your angel on call, IĄŻll be on demand
|
The greatest honor of all, as your guardian
|
|
now no more smiling mid crestfall
|
No more managing unmanageables
|
No more holding still in the hailstorm
|
|
Now enter your watchwoman
|
|
IĄŻll be your keeper for life as your guardian
|
IĄŻll be your warrior of care your first warden
|
IĄŻll be your angel on call, IĄŻll be on demand
|
The greatest honor of all, as your guardian
|
