The Promise

If you wait for me then I'll come for you

Although I've traveled far

I always hold a place for you in my heart

If you think of me If you miss me once in awhile

Then I'll return to you

I'll return and fill that space in your heart

Remembering

Your touch

Your kiss

Your warm embrace

I'll find my way back to you

If you'll be waiting

If you dream of me like I dream of you

In a place that's warm and dark

In a place where I can feel the beating of your heart ...

Together again

It would feel so good to be

In your arms

Where all my journeys end

If you can make a promise 

If it's one that you can keep

I vow to come for you

If you wait for me 

And say you'll hold

A place for me in your heart.

... The Promise, Tracy Chapman
