with or without me

who's to take care of my tomorrows
he who is with me now
or you who is lord knows where
taking care of all of her todays

you do everything but say
the words i love you
your searching eyes reading me
like a well-rehearsed script

i would trade all of my tomorrows
for the chance to hold you
in my arms again and feel
your warm body next to mine

i sense our time has arrived
and yet i love you enough
to want your happiness-
with or without me
