Love is a Promise

from Shadow Line Warnings by Bill White

/

lyrics

love is a promise
it can be broken or kept
heart-pickers are cackling
where the faithful wept

i will not allow anything to tear me apart
or those i love will sure ecape
the sanctuary of my heart

to complain that one is unloved is a complaint,
as empty as the memories of a prisoner escaped
when you cross your fingers
be careful of your hands
the truest lover is the lover
who doesnt give a damn

there is no limit to what
such a person will do
when they fall
crazy-out-of-love with you

i's all the same," she cries
throwing herself to the street
from the window she watches
herself in defeat

"we owe a debt to death" she had read
in her book of sorrows.
"if we do not pay today,
he will come for it tomorrow.
