61. Promise Me

Promise to take my heart
And not break it
I've taped it back together
And I don't want to fix it again.

I care about you a lot
But I don't want to be hurt
I want to be with you a while
But I'm afraid.

Promise to keep me safe
And free from danger
I've been hurt before
And I can't handle it anymore.

I want to try to care again
But I'm afraid to
I want to love again
But I don't want it to be wasted.

Promise to keep me warm
And close all through the night
I've been a little lonely
And I want to feel alright.
