Through young love and the world at our feet,

I will not walk this earth without you.

Through the pain we endured too soon in life,

I will not walk this earth without you.

Through the joy of choosing each other every day,

I will not walk this earth without you.

Through our hardest moments and decisions,

I will not walk this earth without you.

Through our eager hopes, wishes, and schemes,

I will not walk this earth without you.

Through the beautiful mundanity of life,

I will not walk this earth without you.

Through loss, foreseeable and unforeseen,

I will not walk this earth without you.

Through the struggle of raising a faithful family,

I will not walk this earth without you.

Through leaky faucets and upset tummies,

I will not walk this earth without you.

Through graduations, weddings, and funerals,

I will not walk this earth without you.

Through vacations and front porch swings,

I will not walk this earth without you.

Through broken ribs and broken dreams,

I will not walk this earth without you.

Through wrinkled skin and graying hair,

I will not walk this earth without you.

Through life’s top peaks and lowest valleys,

I will not walk this earth without you.

Through every moment, if you stay or if you go,

I will not walk this earth without you.
