Cross my heart, hope not to cry <br />Memories they flutter by <br />I remember you and I <br />Once upon a time in our lives <br /> <br />Toss and turn all night till dawn <br />Wet pillow that I’m sleeping on <br />The heart keeps clinging on <br />Holding on to a love that’s gone <br /> <br />The visions come to me <br />Of a life how it used to be <br />Cross my fingers hope to sleep <br />But the dreams wont let it be <br /> <br />Cross my fingers, hope not to cry <br />Something is missing from my life <br />I can feel the hurt swell inside <br />Now the tears fall from my eyes <br /> <br />Now the tears fall like rain <br />As again I relive the pain <br />Nothing in my world’s the same <br />The heart holds on but knows in vain <br /> <br />Again another sleepless night <br />Toss and turn till morning light <br />As the dreams come that I fight <br />Cross my fingers, hope not to cry <br /> <br />Toss and turn all night till dawn <br />This wet pillow that I cry on <br />The heart keeps clinging on <br />Holding on to a love that’s gone.<br /><br />Bill Simmons<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/cross-my-heart-3/
