Keeper of my Heart

Is your heart asleep?
awaken, my dear
shed no more tears,
no more lonely nights,
all the pain soon forgotten
the keeper of my heart.

you couldn't wait to love me,
so patient,
so kind,
I've always dreamed to find the perfect lover.
we learned to laugh
to live again
the keeper of my heart.

who am I?
I meant to tell,
what will be,
no one knows.

if I lived a thousand years
I never could explain
how I lost my heart to you that night-
the keeper of my heart...
