I cannot promise I will hold you up,
I can't promise my arms won't give out;
but I will stay.
I cannot promise to squeeze you tight,
I can't promise I'll pull you away;
but I will stay.
I cannot promise I will pick you up when you fall,
I can't promise to pick up the mess, day by day;
but I will stay.

I promise, my heart will always be your safe haven.
You may rest in there for all of your days.

My dear, I promise,
I will stay.
