You came into my life when I was drifting in a daze
And a sanctuary seemed to be so hard to find
captive of my bitterness
Directed by my restlessness
Trying to stand aloof from things I couldn't leave behind
Just unable to express my fears
And still too sad to dry the tears
From a time I tried to get out of my mind

Then you took me by the hand
And soon you made me understand
That I had to look behind the clouds to see the sun
You gave my feelings time to grow
So patiently that I couldn't know
Our time would end before it even had begun
When I realized you'd go it made me see
How much you mean to me

I knew you had to go one day
And hoped you'd [bad word] back and stay
Because I surely know
It was way too good to let it go
I still [bad word] in you
And I never thought
That you'd be gone forever
Yes I still believe
If we hold on to each other
And we don't loose faith
Then love will find a way

Take this promise
Take a promise from a wiser man
I would never
I would never let you go away again

From the bottom of my heart
I wish we had a second start
Now I surely know
I should have never let you go
Because deep inside of me there is a place
That you left an empty space
So don't you be afraid
If you don't know where to go to
There will always be
place for you in me

Take this promise
Take a promise from a wiser man
I would never
I would never let you go
Take this promise
I've been missing you much more than words can say
And if you don't miss me
You should know that I will miss you anyway
