The Promise

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 thinking of the right words to say (I promise) I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be (I promise) But if you'll 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 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 gripe to bear I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking of the right words to say (I promise) I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be (I promise) But if you'll wait around a while, I'll make you fall for me I promise, I promise you I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking of the right words to say (I promise) I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be (I promise) And if I had to walk the world, I'd make you fall for me I promise, I promise you I will I gotta tell ya, I need to tell ya, I gotta tell ya, I gotta tell ya I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking of the right words to say (I promise) I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be (I promise) But if you'll wait around a while, I'll make you fall for me I promise, I promise you I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking of the right words to say (I promise) I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be (I promise) And if I had to walk the world, I'd make you fall for me I promise, I promise you I will I will I will I will
