if in this moment I could form speech
not of religion nor politics would I preach
all whispers of death or life left behind
I would not mention once, I would not feel inclined
to bring up common opinions to debate
nor any tragedies glaring from newspapers' front page


see, if in this moment I had the ability to speak
here's exactly what I would do,
what I'd say
I would wrap my breath around my promise to keep

with the phrase


*"I'll love you,
forever and always."
