And of This I Promise.

And of this I promise,    
My only regret,    
Of all of my life,    
Is leaving you,    
If I wish I may, I'd wish I might.    
   
From what they tell me,    
You didn't suffer,    
You played your cards,    
You soon recovered.    
   
The very next day your date was set,    
My arm has the scars to show my regret,    
Oh, so you love her, after a day?    
I suppose that this beauty,    
Blew all ours away.       
   
First love, First loss.    
We were innocent and sweet.    
And now I'm degraded, But I still compete.    
Im trapped in decay,    
Rescue me, You may.    
Your job is done,    
But where's the fun?    
Break my heart some other day.    
   
Tell me your secrets, yes you still do.    
I remember them all, you haven't a clue..    
I remember the night, I thought of my gun,    
But to upset you, I wouldn't have won.    
   
I remember March 31st,    
So few days ago,    
When you told me you loved me,    
And that you had never let go.    
You said I was yours,    
That you hadnt a choice.    
Asked if I was your girl?    
Trust me, every word was the world.    
   
To still call before bed,    
And whisper goodnight,    
Thoughts to swim through my head,    
Still, the morning I'd dread.    
   
I'm sure it's not a dream..    
But you're still with her, And this I know.    
Though my heart screams to intervene,    
My head is the smart one,    
The one that says no.    
   
And of this I promise,    
My only regret,    
Of all my life,    
Is not the man who forced me into his bed,    
Or my father being dead..    
   
My only regret,    
Of all my life,    
Is leaving you,    
I wish you may, I wish you might,    
Be loved, and have sweet dreams tonight.
