"I Promise You" Loneliness - a state of mind Feels like you're a step behind When you're down and need a friend I promise you, I promise you I'll be there to the end When you've gone and lost your way This's what I've got to say Love can hold your head up high I promise you, I promise you I won't say goodbye Down from the low, into the high Might as well enjoy the ride I promise you I won't know what to say And I promise you I'll say it anyway I promise that we'll leave it all behind I promise that we'll have enough time In a moment, come tonight I promise you it'll be all right Walking 'round, running late Which path are you gonna take If you need to make that call I promise you, I promise you I'll catch you when you fall Tonight is crisp and full of life Take my hand, we'll make it right I promise you I won't know what to say And I promise you I'll say it anyway I promise that we'll leave it all behind I promise that we'll have enough time In a moment, come tonight I promise you it'll be all right Sitting alone, all by the phone isn't where you want to be It's out of hand, the musical tandem isn't what you need The rain comes down, all around, turning you inside out You want to laugh, you want to cry, you just wanna shout Walking 'round, running late Which path are you gonna take Love can hold your head up high I promise you, I promise you I won't say goodbye Do you believe in me For all that's left to see I promise you I won't know what to say And I promise you I'll say it anyway I promise that we'll leave it all behind I promise that we'll have enough time In a moment, come tonight I promise you it'll be all right I promise you.
