All eyes were staring
You floated through the room
Armed with your razor smile
Cutting to the bone
My voice fell useless
You flashed a quick "Hello."
Feeling the fool
Could you tell it showed?
But that was some time ago
A memory vague and fading slow
Of somewhere I'd been
Hand on heart
A promise, a word and a voice
Hand on heart
A rhythm of hope and choice
Will keep us together
I don't know if I
Can reach that high
It's a long way to fall
Hauntingly holding
My fate with a gaze
Like a child, mesmerized
By the candle's flame
Oh what lies behind those eyes
I could only guess
That certain way you stood apart from the rest
Now where is some time ago
When everything moved in slow motion
Caught by my watering eye
Hand on heart
A promise, a word and a voice
Hand on heart
A rhythm of hope and a vision of choice
Hand on heart
Promising, I'll never go.
Hand on heart
For reasons you'll never know.
Together through thick and thin
Lose or win
I'll be there for you
(Solo)
Strange how the mind changes
Time and time again
Things once important, now
Pale in comparison
Hand on heart
A promise, a word and a voice
Hand on heart
A rhythm of hope and a vision of choice
Hand on heart
Promising, I'll never go
Hand on heart
For reasons you'll never know
I promise girl
Hand on heart
Hand on heart
Hand on heart
Hand on heart
Hand on heart
Hand on heart
