Here With You

I remember saying goodbye
And promising we'd try
Through the laughter and the tears
Pushing our fears aside
Watching sunsets all alone
As we waited by the phone
For we knew that someday soon
I'd be here with you

We would struggle and we'd pray
To make the most of every day
'Cause holding the picture you had framed
Was not the same as holding you
We sealed our letters with a smile
Blew each kiss two thousand miles
Our hopes and dreams would have to do
'Til I was here with you

I envied little teddy bears
Always there to hug you
And the flowers that would watch you passing by
I inspected every minute
To see if you were in it
Wanting desperately to look into your eyes

But together or apart
You are always in my heart
And my love for you still grows
'Cause we chose to love
We won't always understand
But can trust a greater plan
For after all, He's brought us through
I'm finally here with you
