You be the tree,
I'll wrap you like a koala.
You be the fragile,
I'll handle you with care.
You be the child,
I'll take good care of you like your mother.
You be the criminal,
I'll fight for you like a lawyer.
You be the president,
I'll protect you like a guard.
You be the teacher,
I'll listen to you attentively like a student.
You be the traveler,
I'll guide your path like a map.
You be the priest,
I'll respect you, no matter what.
You be the plant,
I'll be the rain and will shower you to grow.
You be the pen,
I'll be a diary, tell me what you do for a living.
You be the eyeglasses,
I'll be needing you to see clearly.
You be the air,
I'll be needing you to breathe.
You be the light,
I'll be the tunnel, you're the only hope I see.
You be everything,
I'll be nothing without you.
You be my life,
I'll die if you go away.
