In spite of what may come your way, if you have love, laughter and someone with which to share them, you’ll come out okay.

The memories never fade
Even when we’re apart
The love and laughter
We’ve always shared
Despite our situation
Our circumstances
Cannot diminish our hope
Through pain and tears
We cling to each other
Arms locked, braced
We keep standing
Rains come and storms arise
Threatening to wash away
What we have built together
Torrents rage and waves crash
Devotion and determination
Carry us through
Keep us safe
So long as we have each other
The love and laughter prevail
