Leave My Heart With You - cyberlume
Please take good care of her
My heart's all that I own
I've guarded it for someone sure
Never tossed it to the unknown
I'm leaving this broken heart
But please don't play no game
Don't need deception like I've known before
Don't bring me that same pain
I won't make you worry
I'll stay as long as I can
Just keep my heart safe darling
Like only a true love can
On this winding road wandering through the night
I've met tens of thousands of faces
But none seem right
Sometimes I'm so exhausted
Need a place to rest my soul
With someone who holds real love
Who helps me feel whole
I have no diamonds
No brilliant shine to show
Just a humble offering
Of a heart that's been through highs and lows
If you understand me
Promise you'll see it's true
I'm leaving my heart
My only treasure
All for you
Been through experiences
Some sweet, some filled with tears
Searching for that gentle soul
Who'll silence all my fears
No fancy decorations
No bright flowers to line this path
But I'll stand here
Open hoping
Our love can last
No illusions, no grandeur
But I swear I'll love you strong
I just need a place to rest
My tired heart
Help it carry on
Look, I've walked so many nights alone
Battered by mistakes
Holding my fragile heart
It's time to let it break
Those who came and left
Left me emptier than before
But your presence feels like healing
Right down to my core
No diamonds in my pocket
No gold in my hand
But I got honesty, devotion
Hope you'll understand
Leaving you my everything
Don't want it misunderstood
Treat it gently, keep it warm
Just promise that you would
On this winding path
Searching for rest at last
Through tens of thousands of people
My soul's contrast
I'm tired, my heart begs
For a gentle place to land
You're the one I trust
Please stay, hold my hand
No diamonds to offer
Not as excellent as some
But honest love's what I give
A heart that won't run
I'm leaving it with you
So let me know it's safe
We can find a future
In each other's embrace
I have no diamonds to leave you
No shimmer or shine
But I'll give you all of me
My heart, body, mind
And if you keep it safe
I'll be here by your side
Leaving my heart with you
In trust tonight
