As the years do come

And the years will go

And the years keep rushing on by.

Will you have done for me,

What I have done for you 

Or will I just sit and cry.

No limit has been set,

From me to you

As the things my soul say I must do.

So the sky is your limit

Money and work will be no obstacle,

For I, truly do love you.

When you look back

You will look back with cheers

Reflecting back, to me and my deeds.

You will remember them all

As them always you will recall,

liken the Gardener who plants His seeds.

For again they will grow

With each smile and laugh you show

Everyday and every year of your life.

Then you will look into my eyes,

As though to erase tears I have cried,

Knowing mine weren’t nourished, so they died.
