The Reason

I want to be the one you come
to when you want to run away.

I want to be the reason that you
decide to stay.

I want to be there when you fail
and when you try again.

I want to be your lover, I want to be your friend.

I want to be beside you if ever
you fall down.

I want to be the reason your
feet are off the ground.

I want to be there to support
you in making your dreams come true.

I want to be in your corner
for everything you do.

I want to make you happy
throughout  each and every season.

When you fall in love
I want to be the reason.
