Next Time You Fall in Love

I can’t imagine there’s a woman

Who will love you more than this

But I hope when you find another

Your soul will ignite each time you kiss

I hope she’s kind on your tough days

And shows up in all the ways you need

I hope she’ll make you laugh sometimes

And not mind being interrupted when she reads

I hope she’ll sleep more peacefully

Than my restless, anxious turning

I hope she’ll understand you more

And be open still to learning

I hope she loves your tender heart

I hope she never lets you down

I hope next time you fall in love

You never hit the ground.
