in hopes that i can hold you another day
that all the hurtful things i say
will be washed away
in hopes that this forever
will last forever
i want to make you feel this
this hate i have for my lack
i have sworn to you
that my heart is true
and made promises that i am earnest
but i cannot hold you to anything
that i have hurt you with
because i know that i have hopes
beyond what i am showing you
let me keep up with my commitment
to love you more than i have
in hopes that this is the last time
that i hurt you
that this is the last time
i hear your heart break.
love, do you recall the day i took the pink ribbon and tied it to your bag?
that was my promise to be yours for always and ever
let me be faithful to what we are.
