CROSS MY HEART, AND HOPE TO DIE POEM; CROSS MY HEART
AND HOPE TO DIE
STICK A NEEDLE IN MY EYE
WAIT A MOMENT,
I SPOKE A LIE
I NEVER REALLY
WANTED TO DIE.
BUT IF I MAY
AND IF I MIGHT
MY HEART IS OPEN
FOR TONIGHT
THOUGH MY LIPS ARE SEALED
AND A PROMISE IS TRUE
I WON'T BREAK MY WORD
MY WORD TO YOU.
CROSS MY HEART
HOPE TO DIE
STICK A NEEDLE IN MY EYE.
A SECRET'S A SECRET
MY WORD IS FOREVER
I WILL TELL NO ONE
ABOUT YOUR CRUEL ENDEAVOR.
YOU CLAIM NO PAIN
BUT I SEE RIGHT THROUGH
YOUR WORDS IN
EVERYTHING YOU DO.
TEARY EYES
BROKEN HEART
LIFE HAS TORN
YOU APART
CROSS MY HEART
HOPE TO DIE
STICK A NEEDLE IN MY EYE
I LOVED YOU THEN
I LOVE YOU NOW
I'LL STILL LOVE YOU
THOUGH I'LL BREAK MY VOW.
I CAN'T HOLD THIS SECRET
ANY LONGER
IT'S HURTING YOU
NOT MAKING YOU STRONGER.
YOU'RE MY FRIEND
SO I'LL RISK YOUR RESPECT
BY HURTING YOU
I CAN PROTECT
I'LL SAVE YOURSELF
SINCE YOU WILL NOT
YOU MIGHT HATE ME
BUT I'LL GIVE IT A SHOT.
I'M WILLING TO RISK
OUR BOND THAT WE OWN
SO LONG AS YOU'RE SAFE
YOU WON'T BE ALONE.
CROSS MY HEART
HOPE TO DIE
STICK A NEEDLE IN MY EYE
BREAK MY PROMISE
TELL A LIE
SAVE MY FRIEND
THOUGH, MAYBE IT'S 'BYE.'
