My Promise To You


I'll never forget,
The first that we met,
I remember it like it was yesterday,
It's stays deep in my heart,
The day you found me.

We have promised that we would give
To each other all there is to give
For as long as we both shall live.

I never want wealth or fame,
I only want to have your name,
I only want to wear
That tiny band of gold,
And always have you to hold.

I will keep my promise to you,
I will never be untrue,
Even though sometimes I will be
Away from you.

I will never break your heart,
I've always loved you from the start.
I must say to you this very special day,
I won't let it take my pride,
I want to be your bride.

I will never let you feel empty inside,
I will never break the ties that bind,
I will never leave you behind,
I will never let our love die.

So I make another promise to you, my love,
We will live and we will learn,
And where ever you may go,
My heart will always follow.

And now it's plain to see,
That the promises that I have made to thee,
Will show in time, you see,
That you and I will never be lonely,
I love this you and me.
