My Promise

Just a boy, you will not remember half

The things you're going through right now

How can I explain to you things don't

Always go the way you want them to

I know you feel confused

Your mother never wanted this for you

She did her best but that he wouldn't do

You and I are brought together now by

Wedding vows, vows that I have also made to you

Flesh and blood though we are not

I will love you as my own

Now God's love is all we've got

Together we can build a home

All I want for you it to remember this

Never will I turn my back on you

This world will lie to you and take you for a ride

How can I protect you from this path

Only God can show you that the lights in life burn fast

Never forsake you precious days of youth

I promise I will do my best for you

Listen to me and I will listen too
