If I have any common sense I owe it to your heavy-duty presence
You showed up with grace and understanding
You showed it to me and that changed everything
I think of this world of hatred and lies
I feel utterly hopeless, and then I realize
That I don’t have to imagine your love

If we are destined soon to part
I’ll keep the light on for you in my heart
We might not be forever feeling it
But just having known you is a promise
And if we can’t keep it that’s okay with me
Because you showed me beloved community
And because I don’t have to imagine your love
All I have to do is remember it
