The long journey to your heart



The long journey to your heart

This is something I found out from the start
That there’s a long journey to your heart
A journey that someday I wish I could take
And prove to you that your heart is not something I want to break
I know men in the past, have treated u bad
And a lot of them have made you sad
But trust in a man like me, and the love I have for you will set you free.
Free from the hurt and free from the pain
The love I have for you will not be in vein
So I’m asking the question I asked from the start
Can I please travel the long journey to your heart.
