~ The
Promise ~
If you wait for me
I'll come for you
Although I've traveled far
I always hold a place for you in my heart
If you think of me
If you miss me once in a while
Then I'll return to you
I'll return and fill that space in your heart
Remembering
your touch, your kiss, your warm embrace
I'll find
my way back to you
If you'll be waiting
If you dream
of me, like I dream of you
In a place
that's warm and dark
In a place
where I can feel the beating of your heart
Remembering
your touch, your kiss, your warm embrace
I'll find
my way back to you
If you'll be waiting
I've longed
for you and have desired
To see your
face, your smile
To be with
you, wherever you are
Remembering
your touch, your kiss, your warm embrace
I'll find
my way back to you
Please say
you'll be waiting
Together again
It would feel
so good to be in your arms
Where all
my journeys end
If you can make a promise
If it's one that you can keep
I vow to come for you
If you wait for me
And say you'll hold
a place for me in your heart
