100 Poems For The Soul

Thats a Promise

  That's a Promise

I will steal you away, my sweet one
I will spirit you away from here
I will hold your soul in the palms of my hands
And know nothing else so dear

I promise you, I will always
Be here to catch you if you fall
And take your hand in mine, darling
Whenever you start to feel small

I would do anything that you ask of me
I shall defend you from all that might hurt
And when the night grows lonely
I will show you all you are worth

I will never let you down
And when you are weary to tears
I will wrap you deep in my soul
And my lips will quiet your fears

I forever will love only you, sweet one
And sing only your accolades
And if you are tired and sad, my heart
Will never ask a price to pay

Listen to these words that I send you
I will steal you away in the night
And together we'll conquer the skeptical world
If that is what you would like

So come to my window, my love
And under cover of darkness we'll fly
Teach me a love song like that of the doves
For nothing, my dear, is too far away, to reach with you by my side.
