I knew life wasn't a walk through the park
I knew I had to make something out of myself
I knew I had to work harder than anyone else
I knew I had to learn
I knew it wasn't gonna be easy
And then she came along
We both knew we had skeletons in our closets
We both knew we had demons no one else had
We knew it wasn't gonna be easy
But she gave me the strength and courage
To man up, to stand up and know it's gonna be okay
She gave me the strength to give my hand to her and have her walk beside me
Just when everything was going as we envisioned
Who knew that life still had a trick up its sleeves
Who knew I'd have to leave her all alone
Who knew she'd have to cry
Without me there to wipe her tears
No one thought I'd have to die so soon
i had no idea what to call it so forgive the name if it doesn't do justice
