Cross My Heart Lyrics

#
#The Rocket Summer - Cross My Heart .written by Bryce Avery
#
#This is a very unusual song. FLippin amazing, but also strange.
#there is no real chorus or bridge. there is just a load of different sections mised around a bit.
#
#This is my much simplified version for just one guitar to play along with.
#but i will be writing up a more accurate version for 2 guitars very soon.
#

#THE SONG

#
#
cross my heart, hope to die
i swear i won't say what happened that night
so starting today things are gonna be all right
your best you tried, and yeah you did fine
no better than fine, perfect in my mind
in fact, i wish your heart was mine
and i can hear the memory in my ears
back to the years and all those tears
but hear me when i say im glad we steered that way
because now we're here
do you want to get away? get in the car we can leave today
do you want to celebrate our just made little holiday?
cus now today is your day
all that stuff you used to take
im glad you threw all that away cus now you look so great
you never need to be afraid just know you went the right way
because even though we never get things right
and it gets so hard just saying we'll keep trying
its mine to decide when ill be alright
i know you're going crazy (crazy)
but happy is all that you make me (all you make me)
and things are gonna get better baby
i know everything went wrong OK (OK)
but now its time to get some better days (some better days)
cus i don't want to keep acting this way
cus man i know we never get things right
and it gets so old just saying we'll keep trying
but its mine to decide when and if ill be alright..
and thats just a thing that takes time
so keep going till you know when its time, when its right
keep showing yourself in that light
cus back in school man that gets cruel
but one thing is true is that man now look at you
your heart is big enough for two
because i can hear the memories in my ears
back to the years and all those tears
but hear me when i say im glad because we're here
i know you're going crazy (crazy)
but happy is all that you make me (you make me)
and things are gonna get better baby
i know everything went wrong OK (OK)
but now its time to get some better days (better days)
cus i don't want to keep acting this way
cus man i know we never get things right
and it gets so old just saying we'll keep trying
but its mine to decide when and if ill be alright..
and thats just a thing that takes time
