Lyrics
CROSS MY HEART
Words and Music by Ric Cabot Podmore
So the wedge is driven deep within,
And the splintered pieces fall far from;
Leaving me forgiven once again,
Once and for all, completely;
How many times have I prophesied?
The words I spoke as a child...
Cross my heart and hope to die,
Before the stars fall from the sky,
As the world is torn in two,
I'll be sworn to You right from the start...
Cross my heart;
Now the door is open, open wide
To the narrow corridor, entrance way;
Where time is frozen, crystallized,
There's no tomorrows and no yesterdays;
How many times have I prophesied?
How many times, my God?
Cross my heart and hope to die,
Before the stars fall from the sky,
As the world is torn in two,
I'll be sworn to You right from the start...
When I met You on the corner
Where heaven intersects with earth,
I realized I'd been a foreigner,
Not knowing what my life was worth;
And I hope to die,
Stick a needle in my eye;
Cross my heart and hope to die,
Before the stars fall from the sky,
As the world is torn in two,
I'll be sworn to You right from the start...
Cross my heart;
