One Time Around

I'm here I'm not afraid at all I stand here with my feet firm on the ground And the world is at the door Something that I was told I'm proud that I can stand this tall I hold a hand beside me just as strong And the eyes are all around We carry a heavy load And in times like these When the chill is in the breeze I hope I'll spend my life with you And in my dedicated tone I'm sure that you are painfully aware That the road is very long Traveling through the world And as I watch my folks get old I feel a sense of duty and I hope I can show them all I've learned Having a baby girl But in times like these When I talk above my means I look to you Am I the fool That I am I can't believe myself I've always held an independent stance But if I'm forced to look around You're overly qualified One time around That's what I've found If you'll only light the way On a dark day or two or three I've set myself up for the fall And I could not pretend to know it all But I'm singing to a crowd Love is a poetry Why don't you come with me From now until the end of time I'll be your man you'll be my wife We'll see the world we'll watch the stars I'll hold your hand forever I'll be yours And I could be a love to you I'll hold you up and you'll hold me I found a place to tackle life I'll never be too far from sight
