The Promise

Know you say you want to
I know you say it’s true
I know you’re scared of hurt
By anything that I do

Want to make a promise
To take away the fear
Won’t hurt that way again
I promise you, my Dear

Lost so much the first time
That meant so much to me
Won’t do again ever
A promise to you from me

Can not see you hurting
It causes me too much pain
Because of this and vows
I really must abstain

Life we had together
Was oh so dear to me
I want it back and more
Can you please hear my plea?
