Swear

words and music by John Eddie

God it hurts just to look at you
Knowing all the damage that a girl like you could do
Now I know there's someplace you could be
Is some boy waiting
Hating that you're here with me
Blue light crying through the blinds
Makes you look like a friend of mine
We had a love they call the losing kind
And with a kiss that love betrayed me


Chorus:
Put your hand on your heart and swear
On your honor baby promise me
Darlin' don't you dare (swear)
Tell teh llie that a boy believes
When he's running scared from the mand that he wants to be
Comfort me like an answered prayer
Lay me down
Put your hand on your heart and swear


You're on the bad side baby of a loaded gun
Sometimes I feel like I just wanna hurt someone
But you eyes are young and that makes you brave
The things I've seen and done make me so afraid
I've seen a place called too far gone
Down at the end of this road I'm on
Well you could save me with a love that's strong
A love that won't betray me
I wanna lose this what's haunting me
I wanna trust something I can't see
Like a child, make the man believe
Can you prove that you can save me


Chorus....

One kiss and the fight begins
That's a fight that I pray you win
I want you
Tell the truth and girl you've got me
Let me drown
Baby bury me with words
Back it up
Take away a world that hurts
Put your hand on your heart and swear


Can't you see I'm scared
And there's a man I want to be
Comfort me like an answered prayer
Lay me down
Put your hand on my heart and swear
