As You Are

lyrics

We are now, and we are then.
It's kind of hard to comprehend.
We are each unmoving shapes
stretched across time and space.

So no need to hold so tight to me,
but, you say, we can't see the future.
I know you feel unsteady,
but the future is already.

I see you as you are,
and so I see you as you will be.
I see you intertwined with me
as you were
as you will be
as you are.

You take the train
or walk instead to work.
For now I ride a moped,
but one day we'll have a car
parked outside.

See, there you are
waving from the lawn
as I drive off to my job
at the studio that pays the bills
not covered by your job teaching English skills
to twelve-year-olds enrolled
at the same school where we met,
now half our lives ago.

I see you as you are,
and so I see you as you will be.
I see you intertwined with me
as you were
as you will be
as you are.

I see you as you will be.
You will help me from the sidewalk to the street
as I fight to keep my old legs steady.
The future is already.

And all along we are intertwined.
I am yours. You are mine.
I held your hand as we went to classes,
so will I to dust and ashes.

I see you as you are,
and so I see you as you will be.
I see you intertwined with me
as you were
as you will be
as you are.
