Take Care of My Heart

I gave you my heart Though everyone used to tear it apart I trusted that you would keep it whole And that that would be your biggest goal I let you enter though scared as hell I allowed you to break through my safe cell Where I went every time to escape From every single heartbreak When I told myself that I refuse to ever open that gate Yet you came and I opened that gate And you set me free from all the hate Months have passed and you kept if safe From each and every crazy wave I was convinced that you aren't like the rest And with no doubt I knew I loved you best I gave you my heart to keep it safe Then all of a sudden you became that wave That hit my heart Until it felt all ripped apart What happened to the guy I met and learned to love? The one I could once completely trust I wish someday to hold him again The only question now is when? When I finally had enough? And decide to take back my love? I deserve more than this And that is what I truly miss You gave it all once remember And my life simply couldn't be better Please take care of my heart and mend it too Else I HAVE to take it back from you Through all this and all the rest Not once have I ever loved you less Take care of my heart and mend it too Else I HAVE to take it back from you Even if it’s the last thing I want to do I forgive you your mistakes and I don’t love you less, But this time you really need to give your best.
