Promise Me

Member since 2005 · Posted 3 Jul 2005 · Edited 3 Jul 2005 · 3 comments

I don't need a pile of cash, I don't need a ring, I don't need a place to stay, I don't need anything. Just promise me that you'll be there whenever i'm in need; And promise me that when I write, you'll take the time to read. Promise me that when we meet you'll hug and hold me tight; And stay with me until I go, if only for one night. I may not seem very smart, to love you in this way; But you're the one who loves me, so for you, I will stay.

seems like a first draft. make line four have the same rhythm as line two.

add two beats to line four of S-3

You're right, it's not smart to love in this way. Unless this is poking fun at people who do, and I don't see hints of that, it is shallow.
