The Promise

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MvC77iWO648

If you wait for me
Then I’ll come for you
Although I’ve travelled far
I always hold a place for you
In my heart.
If you think of me
If you miss me once in a while
Then I’ll return to you
I’ll return and fill that space in your heart.

Remembering your touch
Your kiss
Your warm embrace
I’ll find my way back to you
If you’ll be waiting.
If you dream of me
Like I dream of you
In a place that’s warm and dark
In a place where I can feel
The beating of your heart.
Remembering your touch
Your kiss
Your warm embrace
I’ll find my way back to you
If you’ll be waiting.

I’ve longed for you
And I have desired
To see your face, your smile
To be with you wherever you are
Remembering your touch
Your kiss
Your warm embrace
I’ll find my way back to you
If you’ll be waiting.
Please say you’ll be waiting
Together again
It would feel so good to be in your arms
Where all my journeys end
If you make a promise
If it’s one that you can keep
I vow to come to you
And say you’ll hold a place for me
In your heart.

(Tracy Chapman/ New Beginning Album)

Dieses Lied läßt mich heute weinen. Ich denke immer wieder an Florians Versprechen, zurückzukommen.. Er konnte es nicht halten. Ich glaube manchmal, ich werde den Rest meines Lebens darauf warten, dass er wiederkommt!
