The Promise Lyrics

Artist: When In Rome
Album: The Promise

If you need a friend, don't look to a stranger,
You know in the end, I'll always be there.
But 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 know they don't sound the way I planned them to be.
But if you'll wait around awhile, I'll make you fall for me,
I promise you, 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 know they don't sound the way I planned them to be.
But if you'll wait around awhile, I'll make you fall for me,
I promise you, I promise you...

I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking of the right words to say.
I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be.
And if I had to walk the world, I'd make you fall for me,
I promise you, I promise you I will.

I gotta tell you, I gotta tell you, I need to tell you...

I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking of the right words to say.
I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be.
But if you'll wait around awhile, I'll make you fall for me,
I promise you, I promise you...

I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking of the right words to say.
I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be.
And if I had to walk the world, I'd make you fall for me,
I promise you, I promise you I will. I will. I will.

I absolutley love this song. It's helping me work through my marriage because it helped me to realize that in the end, it's going to be my husband who will be there for me in the end

What an awesome blast from the past! This is one cool dance song...I miss the Melt With You(s), the You Spin Me Round(s) and The Promise(s)!! :-)

When I can break away from listening to my BOSTON music, these songs are at the front of my CD case.

I love this song! Makes me wish I was born around that time sound I could've been to their concert!

This song was our graduation song back in 1989. I just went to my 20th high school reunion and at the end of the reunion we all hugged in a big circle and sang this SONG AT THE TOP OF OUR LUNGS. Brought back alots of memories of those days.
