My Heart
Russell Thompkins Jr. Lyrics

Mother told me always to follow the golden rule
My mother taught me the importance of treating others how I want to be treated.

And she said it's really a sin to be mean and cruel
My mother emphasized that acting unkindly towards others is morally wrong.

So remember if you're untrue
If you are disloyal or deceitful,

Angels up in heaven are looking at you
divine beings are observing your actions.

You'll never get to heaven if you break my heart
If you emotionally harm me, you will not receive eternal salvation.

So be very careful not to make us part
Thus, you should take caution to not dissolve our relationship.

I've been hearin' rumors about how you play around
I have heard gossip about your unfaithfulness.

Though I don't believe what I hear, still it gets me down
Although I do not entirely trust these rumors, they still make me feel upset.

If you ever should say goodbye
If you were to end our relationship,

It will be so awful, the angels would cry
it would bring significant anguish to both me and divine beings.

I can hardly wait for the day when we say I do
I am eagerly looking forward to the day we get married.

It's a day I've dreamed of so long now it's comin' true
Getting married is something I have imagined and wanted for a long time, and it is finally happening.

You will promise to cherish me
When we marry, you will vow to value and care for me.

If you break your promise the angels will see
If you do not keep this promise, divine beings will bear witness.

Oh no
Expressing disappointment or concern.

Never get to heaven if you break my heart (if you break my heart)
Reiterating the message that causing me emotional harm will prevent you from receiving eternal salvation.
