A pact was made in a creek under the conopies of green trees the water cool and the air fresh with life You asked for my hand, placing it by your beating heart promise never to let go, we'll find our way through the dark I never questioned your intention, Believing with all I am Every word off your lips. I the sacrificial lamb Words in our hearts forever not to break or fade On my heart, you carved your initials with a blade Not the promise but its keeper not the promised but the weeper The creek has run dry. the air thick with regret.
