The Promise
I sat here and wished for you to dance across the diamonds bright
I watched until the lonely day, turned into lonely night
My heart sore cried, I can't go on, this waitng bleeds my soul to dry
I heard the water softly whisper, as the breezes gently sighed
And, I waited.
You promised that you would come back, into my open arms and then
We'd dance together 'cross the light through every road, past every bend
Our hearts, they two, would beat as one, our spirits soar to heavenly heights
I look for you, your face is gone, my heart has lost all fight
I want to turn and run
Its lonely here beside the stream, and I am one as in a dream
but dreams they never do come true, and I wait now, but, not for you
I wait to see the end of day, the dancing light to darkness turn
and wonder where the fire went, the raging blaze that in us burned,
and I cry.
