MY DOUBLE CROSSING HEART

I made an agreement with my heart

To be merciful each time we part

When it comes time to say goodbye

Don’t hurt me heart, don’t make me cry

But when you left this morning 

Before you disappeared

My wicked heart betrayed me

And my eyes filled up with tears

~~~*Chorus*~~~

I'm your sometimes lover

I’m your always friend

Every time you leave me

You return again

I knew it would be like this

From the very start

Can’t you save me from

My double crossing heart

~~*~~

Like the pine in the forest 

I feel tall and strong

But the wind starts to bend me

When you’re gone too long

By the time that you return

The only thing you see

Is a pathetic little 

Weeping willow tree

Like the wild rushing river

I feel power inside

You see a pond that’s overflowing

From the tears I've cried

And like the mighty eagle

Man I own that sky

You see a baby chicken 

That will never fly

~~~*Chorus*~~~

I'm your sometimes lover

I’m your always friend

Every time you leave me

You return again

I knew it would be like this

From the very start

Can’t you save me from

My double crossing heart

~~*~~

I am invincible 

While you are away

It’s the only time I can

Make my heart obey

When you arrive

I am like a child

On the day you leave 

My wicked heart goes wild

I knew it would be like this

From the very start

Can’t you save me from

My double crossing heart

~~~*Chorus*~~~

I'm your sometimes lover

I’m your always friend

Every time you leave me

You return again

I knew it would be like this

From the very start

Can’t you save me from

My double crossing heart

~~*~~
