IN A HEARTBEAT
©Tom Richardson, All Rights Reserved

If I were the King of the Oceans
And you were sailing on a stormy sea
Would I command the waves and the winds to behave,
And move you with a warm gentle breeze?

In a heartbeat, in a heartbeat.

If you were a damsel in your castle
Fending off a million enemies
Would I grab my sword and armor to defend your honor?
Would I join you to bring them to their knees?

In a heartbeat, in a heartbeat.

Circumstances will reveal what a heart can take,
It can be strong and true, but we know that they break.
My only guarantee is I will do my best,
To see that my heart is equal to the test.

Well, I am just a simple, peaceful man,
Trying to be the best that I can be.
I’m no hero but I promise you that I will do what I must do,
To keep my people safe and free.

In a heartbeat, in a heartbeat.
