please let it be you
that i spend my mornings with
on the couch
please let it be you
that i run out screaming
that it snowed outside in december
overjoyed like a child
please let it be you
cooking toast in the kitchen
shirtless and barefoot
as the sun shines through the window
please let it be you
that hangs the first ornament on the tree
and smiles for the camera
as the kids open our gifts
please let it be you
that holds on to our dog
as it spends its last moments with us
please let it be you
that holds my hand when i
inevitably get the call
please let it be you
to hold me tightly when i win it all
