Your Night is Every Night

Although it is your birthday,

I've just got to say,

Your night is not just tonight,

It's every night.

Every single day

I pray.

I thank God for the joy and love in my life.

But saying these words to you cuts like a knife.

Because you don't know.

You have sorrow.

Your birthday is a day everyone celebrates you being born.

But I must warn,

What I'm about to say may make you confused.

Don't feel you have to choose.

What do I have to say?

Your night is every night.

Your arms embraced around me tight,

It feels right.

Your night is celebrated and recognized by me every night.

Now blow out the candle light,

Stay in sight.

Have no fright.

I will always be here.

I know your birthday is special.

Even though at times you are skeptical.

You ask yourself,

What is my purpose in the world?

I ask the same thing of myself.

I've found one answer that's unfurled.

We show the world what love is.

Whether it's friendship or romance,

I'll always be in this trance.

I want you to take my feelings in sight

With all your might.

I want you to know that every night,

Is your night.

Your night is every night.

Hold my friendship and love tight

And take flight.

I will always be here for you.

Every single night.

Because your night,

Is every night.
