All Our Days

Long ago, before we met
I dreamed about you
The peace you’d bring
The songs we’d sing
The way you’d make things new
Then one day you arrived
I heard your angel cry
Helpless, small and perfect
Welcome to your life

And on that day I made a vow
Whispered and true
No matter what, no matter how
I made this promise to you
I will cling, I will clutch
I’ll hold onto you, I won’t turn away
I won’t leave, I won’t go
I will stay with you all our days

Years of joy have passed since then
With time I’ve seen you grow
Watched you play, new each day
I begged the time to slow
And though I miss the little girl
You’ve made me awful proud
Funny how our lives change
‘Cause you’re my hero now

But things in life will rearrange
Friends come and go
Don’t ever doubt, don’t ever fear
I’m always here and you know
I will cling, I will clutch
I’ll hold onto you, I won’t turn away
I won’t leave, I won’t go
I will stay with you all our days

I will stay with you all our days
