I promise-
nay-
I swear to love you
when you don't love yourself
when you look at your hands
and feel they have made nothing
when your eyes are glassy with tears
and you're paralysed with fears
I will love you.

I will love you when we're old
and we tell stories
of how we were bold
in our youth
and you'll know it's the truth
when I tell you
I love you

I will love you when the sun rises
and when it sets
when you wear a suit
and I wear a dress
when my head
is rested on your chest
I will love you
because it's what I do best

I'll love you
when you love someone else
I'll love you
when I don't love myself
I'll love you
even if we never end up together
but dear, be assured
I'll love you forever
