Still I Swear

When you left me and you dropped my hand,
my breath was short, I could barely stand.
Still the echoes of your voice
Tell me you made a wrong choice.
All the memories feel so good inside,
I wish, I wish I could forget the good-bye.
‘Cause now you’ve got me on my toes.
This is the second time in a row.
Bet that you don’t know

that i opened my heart,
only for you.
And it’s true, it’s true,
that you ripped it in two.
The tears I bear.
It wasn’t fair,
and yet still I swear,
that we can be together.

You have my feelings
locked up in a box.
And you hid the key.
Now I have to race the clock.
You say you need some time.
Well so do I, but I still need you in my life.
You don’t understand
the pain I’m in.
Why can’t i ever win?

I opened my heart,
only for you.
And it’s true, it’s true,
that you ripped it in two.
The tears I bear.
It wasn’t fair.
And yet still I swear,
that we can be

together is the only word,
the only word I’ve ever learned
from you.
Now all the lonely nights,
I spend tryin’ to fight
the emotions of sorrow
invadin’ my mind.
I opened my heart
only for you.
And it’s true, it’s true,
that you ripped it in two.
The tears I bear.
It wasn’t fair.
And yet still I swear

that I opened my heart
only for you.
And it’s true, it’s true,
that you ripped it in two.
The tears I bear,
it wasn’t fair.
And yet still I swear,
and yet still I swear
that we can be together.

A break up that I still believed was a mistake...
