Across The Line



At the end of time
you need the one to walk with
across the line

Like how charcoal is required for a fire
You need the one you desire

Someone to hold you tight and close
So when it's time you won't be alone

To have someone to be by your side
and have them share your every stride

To share a goodnight kiss
that is filled with heavenly bliss

To have the one whom you will marry
and have a life with and be merry

Because at the end of time
you need the one to walk with
across the line
