May It Always Be

Well, I've been with you for a fairly long time
So may I call you, may I call you, may I call you mine?
And you, unknown, have been with me
And may it always, may it always, may it always be

Please don't leave my side, remember how I love you
And none of what I have done wrong was ever really done against you
If you love me and I'm weak, then weaker you must love me more
Yes, to reinforce what's all so strong
And all the love we have in store

And by example you have shown me that living can be alright
So stay here with me, stay here with me, stay with me tonight
Oh and come with me when I go into the bedroom
And we'll play bride, we'll play bride, we'll play bride and groom

And if you had not been born, you know
What would I, what would I be then?
Well I would not have strength to grow
Be counted and be counted among men

So please don't leave my side, remember I love you
And none of what I have done wrong was ever really done against you
And if you love me and I'm weak, then weaker you must love me more
Yes, to reinforce what's all so strong
And all the love we have in store

And in the morning we'll wrestle, ruin our stomachs with coffee
Then won't we be, won't we be, won't we be so happy?
Then we will rise in anger, in love and in ardor
The shining, sparkling, shimmering, pure love's armor
