Here For You


I was there when you first transfered over

there when you needed a friend

I was there when you chased girl after girl

there when you came back with your tail between your legs

I was there when you talked about what you wanted in a relationship

there when you were blind to see how I fit the bill

I was there when you had more friends later

there when you turned several shades of red at their comments of us being an item

I was there when you vehemently denied it

there went you couldn't meet my eyes as you said it

I was there when you started to change your views

there when you needed someone to confess to

I was there when you planned your first date

there when you picked out the perfect outfit for your big night

I was there when you left 

there when you brought him home for the first time

I was there when you crumbled beneath your parents harsh words

there when you cried that you were a freak

I was there when you let me tell you how wonderful you are

there when you were ready to listen about how people were not going to accept you

I was there when you were able to understand that this made you no less worthly of love

there when you understood I loved you

I was there when you got the courage to continue on

there when you were reassured that I would always be by your side

I was there when you proposed

there when you said "I do"

I will always be here for you, even when the world tells you you're alone

there for you as he is now, because we love you
