I Will Always Be Here

All the dreams that I've suffered
that have clouded by path
I've been mighty ungrateful
for the life that I've had

For what was I waiting?
frozen and cold
Won't you warm me up darling
Before I'm too old

So forgive me my darling for the trouble I've caused
I didn't mean to cut you with these clumsy old claws
With the Sun as my witness, I promise you dear
If you ever need someone, I will always be here

All the plans I had laid out
all the hopes in my head
made me strangely suspicious
of her magical bed

What a fool I have been
what a stubborn old one
Couldn't see her sweet smile
as the prize to be won

So forgive me my darling for the trouble I've caused
I didn't mean to cut you with these clumsy old claws
With the Sun as my witness, I promise you dear
If you ever need someone, I will always be here

Many dark days I've battled
many scoundrels I've known
that I boarded up my heart
just to weather the storm

I'm not making excuses
but I hope you can see
why giving my heart to you
was a struggle for me

So forgive me my darling for the trouble I've caused
you know you're an angel for forgiving my flaws
So with the Sun as my witness, I promise you dear
If you ever need someone, I will always be here

I will love and protect you for all of my years.
