for every ounce of unsung scars
and strength to hold back years
so flowers would remain as stars
and youth would overcome our tears
to walk the miles, autumn, fall
again, again, this life with you
and all the hard choices I've had to make..
still I would remain true.
so that you, everlasting ember of a memory
would never fade, bright, from this place
who set my spirit dancing, twirling
with your wit, your charm and grace
for every ounce of unsung scars
and strength to hold back years
so flowers would remain as stars
and youth would overcome our tears
to walk the miles, autumn, fall
again, again, this life with you
and all the hard choices I've had to make..
still I would remain true.
so that you, everlasting ember of a memory
would never fade, bright, from this place
who set my spirit dancing, twirling
with your wit, your charm and grace
