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.
