Enfolding your love in my heart By the dawn I'll become The road keeps us apart For some time I'll be gone. You promise you swallow your tears when I leave you You promise to follow the leads I would give you, You said you would crawl in the dark from the laughter You said you would long after me ever after. [Chorus:] My love will grow black if you heart get stolen Just promise to keep your heart One day I'll come back if the door's still open Just promise to keep your heart broken. Days go by like the wind And this life it's too short It makes no sense to give in To release you from my thoughts. I promise to write you I'll always remember, I promise to try to be back 'till December I said I must go, I must face this disaster, You said I would come after you ever after. [Chorus] If you just promise to keep your heart Promise to keep your heart broken If you just promise to keep your heart... Broken...broken. [Chorus] For ever and after my life Just promise to keep your heart broken...
