The Promise (After Tracy Chapman) Poem by RIC BASTASA

if you wait for me
then i will come to you
if you think of me
then i will be back to you
if you miss me
once in a while
then i will return to you
i return and fill that space
in your heart

remembering your touch
your kiss, your warm embrace
i will find my way
back to you

if you dream of me
that i dream of you
in that place that is warm and dark
in that place where i can
hear the beating of your heart

i'll find my way back to you...

i long for you
and i have desired
to see your face
your smile
to be with you
wherever you are

i'll find my way back to you
please say that you will be waiting
together again
if it feels so good to be
in your arms
where all my journeys end

i'll vow to come back to you
if you say you'll wait for me
