Promise

This is the rose bush my 16 year old son bought me for Mother's Day. All on his lonesome. Sometimes... So. I chose a song that shows how I feel about being a mom. And how I want my children to think of me, if they ever need the basics in life.

"The only promise that remains" [link]

When the ground beneath,
Starts a shaking,
Shaking,
And you forget the place we came from,
Came from,
When you're lost and looking for a way home,
Your way home to me,
I'll come out and find you,

When the world around you starts a moving,
Moving,
And you should wonder if I still love you,
Love you,
If you feel a darkness coming,
Rising inside,
I'll make a light to guide you back home,

And after all the sky has fallen down,
And after all the water's washed away,
My love's the only promise that remains,

When your thoughts have got you thinking,
Thinking,
That nothing's ever really sacred,
Sacred,
And you're afraid you might believe it,
Believe in me,
And I'll give you a reason,

'Cause the world around us keeps on moving,
Moving,
And there's no doubt that I still love you,
Love you,
So when you feel a darkness coming,
Rising inside,
I'll make a light to guide you back home
