The Promise of Love

Regret written on our foreheads, With invisible ink, That only we can see, I wish things could've been different, But how great would things be, Who knows what a minor change would bring, I had given up, My heart became numb, I didn’t care, About anyone who was there, I had wept, As a mental picture of you crept, Through my mind, Forgetting the bread crumbs behind, Maybe, The future is where our love stands, Waiting for us to entwine our hands, I would be there till the end of the earth, I would be exactly what you deserve, Not even time will hold us apart, For I gave my heart, And I can’t buy it back, Your stuck with my love and I’m sorry about that, I can’t promise you we would last, Only time can tell that, I can promise you I love you, No matter what separates our path.
