"The Promise" lyrics

If you need a friend
Don't look to a stranger
You know, in the end
I'll always be there
And when you're in doubt
And when you're in danger
Take a look all around
And I'll be there

I'm sorry but I'm just thinkin' of the right words to say
I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be
But if you wait around a while, I'll make you fall for me
I promise, I promise you I will

When your day is through
And so is your temper
You'll know what to do
I'm gonna always be there
Sometimes if I shout
It's not what's intended
These words just come out
With no cross to bear

I'm sorry but I'm just thinkin' of the right words to say
I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be
But if you wait around a while, I'll make you fall for me
I promise, I promise you
I'm sorry but I'm just thinkin' of the right words to say
I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be
But if you wait around a while, I'll make you fall for me
I promise, I promise you I will

I need to tell ya
I need to tell ya
I gotta tell ya

I'm sorry but I'm just thinkin' of the right words to say
I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be
But if you wait around a while, I'll make you fall for me
I promise, I promise you
I'm sorry but I'm just thinkin' of the right words to say
I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be
But if I had to walk the world, I'd make you fall for me
I promise, I promise you I will
