Promises
When I think about the turn my life has taken
I know its because of you, that I receive so many blessings
I had a home but no privacy, I didnt know a thing about my legacy
When I realized you were there for me, I called on your name and you came
And you did, just what you said, for that Ill love you forever
You kept, your word to me, for that Ill love you forever
Chorus
A promise, is a promise in my eyes
Cant say youre gonna just to compromise
The very thing that keeps two hearts intertwined
A promise is a promise you cant deny, theres no way
I think of when there was a young boy, not even two years old
Blessed with a mother who loved him so, she abandoned her dreams to nourish his
Own
It wasnt easy for the two of them, but she knew she had to give him a chance
At a better life, it was only right, so she worked and she prayed
And she did, just what she said, for that hell love her forever
She kept her word to him, for that hell love her forever
Chorus
A promise is a promise, in my eyes
Cant say youre gonna just to compromise
The very thing that keeps two hearts intertwined
A promise is a promise you cant deny, theres no way
A mans only as good as his word
[instrumental break]
Check this out
Her wedding day and shes thinking bout the way he won her affection
She was so cynical about love cause she didnt want to be heart broken again
He looked her in her eye with sincerity, said he only wanted to protect her so
She
Took a chance on him and shes glad she did because he came for real
And he did, just what he said, for that shell love him forever
He kept his word to her, for that shell love him forever
Chorus:
A promise is a promise, in my eyes
Cant say youre gonna just to compromise
The very thing that keeps two hearts intertwined
A promise is a promise you cant deny, theres no way
No way, no, there aint no way
A mans only as good as his word

Keep The Promise
(j.p. maunick/r. bull/r. taylor)
Felt so good when we started
The future burnt so bright
From the moment our eyes met
We knew that it was so right
We have each other
And I believe we have the power
To make it happen
Chorus:
(keep the promise)
(can we keep the promise)
Can we keep it
(keep the promise alive)
Oh
(keep the promise)
(can we keep the promise)
(keep the promise alive)
I believe in the notion
We have dreams to fulfill
I believe in forever
I know that I always will
You are the reason
Baby I cannot shake this feelin
Lets make it happen
Repeat chorus
It gets better, it gets stronger all the time
And Ive discovered that theres one thing on my mind
Keep the promise alive
Chorus to fade

This I Promise You
When the visions around you,
Bring tears to your eyes.
And all that surrounds you,
Are secrets and lies.
I'll be your strength
I'll give you hope,
Keeping your faith when it's gone.
The one you should call,
Was standing here all alone.
CHORUS
And I will take you in my arms,
And hold you right were you belong.
'Til the day my life is through...
This I promise you...
This I promise you...
I've loved you forever,
In lifetimes before.
And I promise you never...
Will you hurt anymore.
I give you my word,
I give you my heart.
This is a battle we've won.
And with this vow,
Forever has now begun...
Just close your eyes,
Each lovin' day.
And know this feeling won't go away.
'Til the day my life is through...
This I promise you...
Over and over I fall...
When I hear you call...
Without you in my life, baby.
I just wouldn't be living at all...
CHORUS
And I will take you in my arms,
And hold you right were you belong.
'Til the day my life is through...
This I promise you, baby.
Just close your eyes,
Each lovin' day.
And know this feeling won't go away.
Every word I say is true...
This I promise you...
I promise you...

Lullaby
Hello there, how was your day?
Sorry that I'm was away.
Hello there, how is the weather?
Sorry I'm not there to play....
I'm trying just to make it better for you
I know it's harder to understand
I'm always gonna love you
I promise you, I promise
I'm always thinking of you
I promise, I promise you
Hello there, why are you crying?
I know you're trying your best.
To be good now for your mother
Hold her and tell her and you're gonna be OK.
I never meant to make you feel so bad.
Hope someday you'll understand
I'm always gonna love you
I promose you, I promise
I'm always thinking of you
I promise, I promise you
I swear I'm gonna make it up to you
I know someday you'll understand
I'm always gonna love you
I promise you, I promise
Always thinking of you
I promise you, I promise

For A Girl
For a girl who would always say the truth I promise I will never lie...
For a girl who would trust me completely I promise I will never cheat on her...
For a girl who accepts me as the way I am I promise I will hold on her forever...
For a girl who would treat my parents as her own I promise I will respect her parents too...
For a girl who would care me like her child I promise I would love her like my mother...
For a girl who would be there in my sorrow I promise I will give her all my happiness...
For a girl who wouldn't see other men I promise she would be only girl of my life...
For a girl who would love me unconditionally I promise I would be the man she wants to be...

The Promise
I promise you that we stay together
Though sometimes
I can't keep my promises,
I promise to cherish our love forever.
My love for you grows stronger
And my heart longs for your love.
Though I'm far, far away,
Deep inside my heart you'll stay.
I promise you one thing
That I'll come back for you.
This love keeps me reminding,
For my heart belongs to you.
I promise to make things better for us.
I know it's not easy to be happy
If we are far from each other always.
I promise we'll be together someday.

See The Sun
I'm comin' 'round to open the blinds
You can't hide here any longer
My God you need to rinse those puffy eyes
You can't last here any longer
And yes they'll ask you where you've been
And you'll have to tell them again and again
And you probably don't want to hear tomorrow's another day
Well I promise you you'll see the sun again
And you're asking me why pain's the only way to happiness
And I promise you you'll see the sun again
Come on take my hand
We're going for a walk, I know you can
You can wear anything as long as it's not black
Please don't mourn forever
She's not coming back
And yes they'll ask you where you've been
And you'll have to tell them again and again
And you probably don't want to hear tomorrow's another day
Well I promise you you'll see the sun again
And you're asking me why pain's the only way to happiness
And I promise you you'll see the sun again
And I promise you you'll see the sun again
Do you remember telling me you found the sweetest thing of all
You said one day of this was worth dying for
So be thankful you knew her at all
But it's no more
And you probably don't want to hear tomorrow's another day
Well I promise you you'll see the sun again
And you're asking me why pain's the only way to happiness
And I promise you you'll see the sun again
And you probably don't want to hear tomorrow's another day
Well I promise you you'll see the sun again
And you're asking me why pain's the only way to happiness
And I promise you you'll see the sun again
See the sun again

Is Nothing Sacred
If a love as strong as ours
Couldnt make it all the way,
Can anything make sense at all?
If a love so deep and true
Couldnt stand the test of time,
Then mount everest could slide,
And jeruselem could fall.
Is nothing sacred anymore?
Is forever just another word?
Is a promise something people used to keep
When love was worth fighting for?
If we can say good-bye,
If we can say good-bye,
Is nothing sacred anymore?
If we can say good-bye
Is nothing sacred anymore?
I can hear the final words
Every sentence that was said
Dont know what turned our lives around.
It doesnt matter who was right,
Theres no justice in a dream.
Never thought a heart could break
Without making any sound.
Is nothing sacred anymore?
Is forever just another word?
Is a promise something people used to keep
When love was worth fighting for?
If we can say good-bye,
If we can say good-bye,
Is nothing sacred anymore?
If we can say good-bye
If we can say good-bye
Is nothing sacred anymore?
Our love was as certain as the dawn,
As solid and save as any love could be.
Our love was the star you wished upon,
And you thought that I saved you,
Couldve sworn that you saved me.
Is nothing sacred anymore?
Is forever just another word?
Is a promise something people used to keep
When love was worth fighting for?
If we can say good-bye,
If we can say good-bye,
Is nothing sacred anymore?
Is nothing sacred anymore?
Is forever just another word?
Is a promise something people used to keep
When love was worth fighting for?
If we can say good-bye,
If we can say good-bye,
Is nothing sacred anymore?
If we can say good-bye,
If we can say good-bye...
Is nothing sacred anymore...
Is nothing sacred anymore...
Is nothing sacred anymore...

It's A Promise
When I get up in the morning and see first light
I remember it's a promise
When the sun begins to set with color
I remember it's a promise
When I stare up in the darkest night, and see brightest moonlight
I remember it's a promise
When a ray of light slices the clouds and it's pure
I remember it's a promise
When I see the majestic forest of green tree
I remember it's a promise
When I see the blue ocean
I remember it's a promise
When I see the sparkle of a star or the shining of the sun
I remember it's a promise
If I look into the stars and see a galaxy
I remember it's a promise
Somehow everything will be fine like the world around me
Because in everything there's a promise
And when a promise is bound by unfailing love
It can't be broken
That's a promise.

Promise Me Youll Try
Promise me youll try
(p. zizzo)
I know its on your heart
That a love like ours
Shall never fall apart
Youre so afraid of the rain
So Ill take your hand
And Ill love you in the best way that I can
And I only expect the same
Dont promise me forever
Dont promise me the sun and sky
Dont pretend to know
Youll never make me cry
Just hold me now
And promise me youll try
Though Im sure of what I feel
I never thought a love
So true felt so unreal
And Im a little afraif myself
If you love me day by day
With an honest heart and just a little faith
Baby time will tell the tale
Just hold me now
And promise me youll try

Here we are trying to mend all the broken hearts
In a world where the pain is the fear
Aint no doubt theres a method to madness here
Set your clock to the start of a brand new year
Shine your heart to the universe and get the news
Not alone never have been, never will be
See the truth, not to mention the promise made
See them all, see them all high on judar rhythm
We began at the very first spring
How the promise will come when the promise is made
We will sing at the very first spring
That the promise will come when the promise is made
Promise is made, promise is made
Shake me up, take me up
Face to face
Lift me up, shake me up
Face to face
Make me real, make me longing to see you smile
Shall we dancing, shall we be the dancing down under
In this life of lives, are we ready to take the chance
Moving to the rhythm, here at last to

Honey listen to me
Your love is all I need
You should know that I dont need nothin
That money can buy

So if a boy were to come along
And try to make me leave you

Thered be no need to worry

(I need to hear that you really love me)
Baby dont you know that I love you
And Id never put nobody above you
He could promise the moon and the stars above
Even if he promised me the world
Just remember Im forever your girl
He could promise the world
You gotta remember
Im forever your girl

Just remember Im forever your girl
He could promise the world
You gotta remember

When the mountains crumble into the sea
Thats the day someonell come
Between you and me
Baby just remember I gave you my heart

Baby he could promise me diamonds
Even if he promised me pearls
Honey you know I aint lyin
Listen as I tell it to the world

Ill Never Find Someone Like You
Oh, Ill never find
Ill never find some one like you
Girl you take my breath away
And when Im with someone new
Id rather be here with you baby forever
My heart belongs to you
cause I think about you all the time
I know my love is true
When were together
I played around girl
And I made you cry
When I looked up
You were saying goodbye
Im begging you please
I need you so bad
Dont leave me now youre the best that Ive had

Baby forever
Oh, you dont know that youre hurting me
cause its not just a sexual thing
I wanna share my dreams
Baby together, oh
Girl Im afraid just to give you that but
My hearts telling me to hold on to my love
But when you get close

And I cant let you go

Say A Little Prayer
Mr. moonlight...shinebright
Show me my mr. right
Lights, camera, action
I wanna be his sole distraction
Cupid draw your bow
Shoot it nice and slow
Send it straight to his heart
Love dont let him go
You must let him know
This is love from the start

Say a little prayer
Say a little prayer for me tonight
Say a little prayer
Say a little prayer for my hear tonight
Mama always told me

What you get is not what you see
Im not taking any chances
No more broken romances
Cupid draw your bow fetch

I promise to always love and care for him
And I promise...to do my very best for him

And I promise...Ill always be there for him
