Is There A Place (In His Heart For Me)

(album: New Ways But Love Stays - 1970)

Is there a place in his heart for me permanently
Or is it just another heartache for me that I refuse to see?

Evening comes and he whispers
Those pretty words he knows I wanna hear
Is it for real or just a play where I give in
Oh, and he gets his way

Oh, tell me, tell me what happens
When the final act is over?
Will he be there?

'Cause promises at night are so easily made
But they can disappear at the light of day
So I ask myself over and over
Is there a place in his heart for me permanently?

The way he says "I love you"
Makes me feel so good inside
But how can he expect me to surrender
In some short of time?

There's just too many guys
That'll break a girl's heart
And walked slowly out the door
I've had too many heartbreaks
I can't stand anymore

Promises at night are so easily made
But they can disappear at the light of day
So I ask myself over and over
Is there a place in his heart for me permanently?

Words that I said keep filling my head
Yet I'm reluctant to believe them
Those same words in the past
They never seemed to last
More than a moment's embrace
And tenderness turns to emptiness

Promises at night are so easily made
But they can disappear at the light of day
So I ask myself over and over
Is there a place in his heart for me permanently?

Promises at night are so easily made
But they can disappear at the light of day
So I ask myself over and over
Is there a Place in his hear for me permanently?

Promises are so easily made
They Can disappear at the light of day
So I ask myself over and over
Is there a place in his heat for me permanently?
