One look in his eyes and I had realized

His life was so simple, he had no disguise

He lived day to day, no promise he would stay

But in these few words, he stole my heart away

He said, "My life's not to lead through power or greed

And here is my heart for only you to keep"

No scholarly thoughts, he couldn't pay high costs

  C      Am       G    Am

But he said this true and he said it loud

"I promise you my heart, with this solemn vow"
