I'll make you laugh
If you'll make me cry
I'll make you smile
If you'll make me sad

I'll share your joy
When there is none of my own
Take my hand
In pouring rain
We'll run through the thunder filled sky

I'll be silent
When you speak
Of things dear to my heart
That have no answer
Which I can voice

I'll be talkative
When you are quiet
Sharing stories
Left untold to all
Before there was you

I'll hold you into the night
Never letting go
Unless you ask
Then only for a moment
No more

I'll share your pain
Taking it away
Make it fly through the sky
Until it comes back
Ecstatic once more

I'll put a hand out
Silently in the dark
To be taken up
By only one
Who I will accept

I'll reject all others
Without a second thought
No hand to match
This destiny but the one
You offer
