Cross My Heart

Cross My Heart
All our lives we've lived in debt
A jar of change our safety net
This hand to mouth is growing old
It's time to play your hand or fold
To have a dream is not enough
You make it work or give it up
And you deserve much more than this
Precious things need good luck's kiss

Cross my heart and hope to die
This time I'll do more than try
This time I'll do
Do for you
Yeah, just for you
We've been dreamin' about a home
It's always warm and all our own
A front doorknob that's made of brass
I'll change the storms and cut the grass
Cross my heart and I hope to die
This time I'll do more than try
This time I'll do
Do for you
Yeah, just for you
Cross my heart and hope to die
This time I'll do more than try
This time I'll do
Do for you
Yeah, precious you
