"You light my way"

The time will come, she looks at you, 
Staring into your soul anew, 
Over and over as you take your final breath, 
She will ask why, in the face of death.

Why did you choose me above all, 
In this moment, as shadows fall? 
You say, "You made me laugh, you made me cry, 
You made me better, and now we say goodbye.

For every day, you lit my way, 
I wouldn't trade you, come what may. 
In laughter, tears, and every strife, 
You were my world, my heart, my life."
