Always Say Goodnight

No matter how many tears are shed, or words in anger said
Before you lay your head, make sure the heart is on the mend.
By…
Not being the one who is always right,
And proclaiming the "win" of every fight
Carrying it through to dawn's early light.
Remembering to hold each other tight,
And to always say goodnight.

For we don't know how this journey will end,
Or when we must let go of that dear friend.
O the tears we'll shed, as we lay our head.
Our heart can not be on the mend,
Taking back words in anger said.
By…
Not being the one who is always right,
And proclaiming the "win" of every fight
Carrying it through to dawn's early light.
Remembering to hold each other tight,
And to always say goodnight.
