Cross My Heart

Cross my heart

and hope to die

when you cross my mind

I manage a lie

 

and pretend like you aren't there

 

You crossed my heart

I hope you die

when I cross your mind

I pray you cry

 

don't pretend like this was fair

 

I cross my heart

and hope it dies

so I may cease

this gilded guise

 

I no longer care to care
