CROSS MY HEART
(John Alexander)

Johnny Ace - 1953


I cross my heart and I hope to die
If I should ever, ever make you cry
'Cause you're my own
Darling, you're a part of me

I swear by everything, every star above
I'll be with you, please be my love
You're everything
Everything a love can be

I'd trade the world for the treasures of your charms
My Dear, I'll never be free
Be with me, right here in my arms
You're my queen, you'll always be

I swear, I swear, by all that's real
No love but yours I'll ever feel
I cross my heart and if I lie
I hope to die 

I cross my heart and if I lie
I hope to die
