(01) Would you

 

Would you hate me,

If I told you

That you’re the girl I’ve

            always wanted

always loved

and always will?

 

…the only one I’ve

ever trusted

never hurt

and never will

 

But broken hearts

Can be deceiving

And promises

Can even kill

           

Refrain:

 

Don’t forget me,

Keep me in your memory –

Just the way that I were –

Not the way I am.

 

And promise me

That you will be

By my side

… tonight.

 

2)

 

Would you hate me,

If I told you

            that you’re my angel

you’re my heaven

a constant longing

never still

 

And watching you kiss

            all the others

            slowly made my

heart go smother

 

Me being lying

To myself and

Lying crying

Every night

For promising to be your friend

And keeping lying till the end

 

Refrain:

 

Don’t forget me,

Keep me in your memory –

Just the way that I were –

Not the way I am.

 

And promise me

That you will be

By my side

… tonight.

 

3)

 

And

would you hate me,

If I told you

That I have to die tonight?

 

Need you

to take my hand

and hold me near

to please pretend

you have no fear

 

Say it won’t hurt and

Be alright and

Stay with me

All through the night.

 

Refrain:

 

Don’t forget me,

Keep me in your memory –

Just the way that I were –

Not the way I am.

 

And promise me

That you will be

By my side

… tonight.

 

And promise me

That you will be

By my side,

And be my bride

… tonight.

 

 

Laut der Jury der Bibliothek deutschsprachige Gedichte "beherrsche ich mein Handwerk". Ist doch nett... :)
