Promise

I want to tell you a secret
a secret deep in my heart
the one I've never told
and never will again
would you like to hear it
just this once
I think I might be able to tell you
but you need to be quick
and stay still
its hard to tell this secret
in my heart
the one thing I could never say
the one thing you never knew
the one thing I could only say in my dreams
if I tell you will you still be here
will you still be by my side
still be willing to fight my battles
side by side
or would you leave
and never come back
would you turn away and run
or stay and be my sun
be the one who knows everything
I could never tell
be the one
who will never let me feel alone
in a world full of people
and in places so crowded
even in an empty room
if I had you
I would never feel alone
I would know you're always right there
just a call away
could you do that
could you listen to my secret
and promise to keep it
promise to stay
and always be there
or would that be too much
would that be too hard
I need to know
I can't take much more
please
please
promise you'll stay
promise you'll listen
promise you'll be my sun
promise you'll be mine
