I Will Still Sway With You

When we fell in love a seed was planted,

When I asked for your hand we began to grow,

And when we took our vows we fully grew,

So as we stand amongst this forest united as one I promise you,

When you don't want to talk,

I will still sway with you,

When you feel like giving up,

I will still sway with you,

When the doctor breaks the bad news,

I will still sway with you,

When our children cause us to stress,

I will still sway with you,

When the tumor starts to grow,

I will still sway with you,

When your soul departs from the hospital bed,

I will still sway with you,

For when the willow weeps,

Let the bark soak up the tears,

And may the branches shield you from strife,

For if death shall take you away,

From where we are rooted together in love,

I can promise you that I will always sway for you,

Until this tree that once bonded our spirits together,

Becomes dust within this vast forest
