Scared to death

I was scared to death
but i still went with you
followed your lead and you grabbed my hand
and said i will never let you go

We set there for hours
just looking at each other
You were my proof that there was a such thing called love

Please don't let me fall
Please don't let me go
and he whispered i will never let you
and thats a promise

Now those memories are like ashes from cigarettes
blowing in the wind
I once the had the world in my hand
i was nearly scared to death

i was at the top but i still kept climbing
I asked god a question is everything here make believe
with a tear in my eye and my hands reaching for the sky
i cried out to him
waiting for answers

ill have you know i was scared to death
as i fell i reached out for him to catch me
and i was not retrieved

These are the words he said to me
I will not let you fall
his promise was not kept
