fragile and rare

[messyah]

stroke your fingers along my cheek
see me cowering longing and meek
look in my eyes and tell me you care
see the hope that's blossoming there

chorus:
cross my heart and hope to live
i have so much love to give
this beautiful heart so fragile and rare
look in my eyes and tell me you care


broken hearts litter the past
if experience teaches i'm the head of the class
trying to capture in silly rhymes
silence on the line and awful times

chorus

squeeze me close and hold me tight
tell me that we'll never fight
run your fingers through my hair
and tell me that you really care

chorus

tickle and play growl and cuddle
backrubs that leave us in a silken puddle
push me away if you think you must
someday we'll find that deeper trust
