Dear Heart

I thought that things were changing
That his face was finally gone
out of my head for forever
The loneliness would be withdrawn

I thought maybe I could get some rest
have a stable peace of mind
Not have to worry about the days
that he and she would be entwined

I don't like thinking of the times
when there was him and me
it cuts somewhere deep inside
where the pain is just too hard to free

Together, him and her combined
Make such a simple conclusion
Hand in hand and lips to lips
There's just one problem with this illusion

Once upon a forgone time
those words that are softly spoken
now said so sincerely to that girl
were promises to me left only broken

You see my dear heart
I know why you're upset
She has taken your favorite place
I understand why you would fret

I thought maybe now would be different
times are changing now you see
it's a whole new world, new people too
so why can't you be given back to me

He tried at one time
To hand you back
But he cut my chest
And pieces were lacked

You see dear heart
I cannot explain
Why I gave you so easily
or gave you such pain

If I knew what to do
It would've already been done
he'd be out of our lives
and would again rise the sun

I'd give all these memories
both caustic and loved
To take back the pain
That has been heavily shoved

I'm sorry dear heart
that I put you through this
I hope you forgive me
And help me again find bliss

I really do hope
My mistakes are in the past
that everything I've done
Will not forever last

One more thing dear heart
If you hear me crying out
please find your way back
and take the quickest route

I need you here
I need you now
Which road should I take
you're not here for me to follow

Without you, I cannot get through this
So please run and break free
I promise that you'll be safe
because he no longer has the key

Dear heart, I know why you're upset
But I also know in time
If you come back to me right now
he won't be worth a dime
