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
