You kept, your word to me, for that Iâll love you forever
Chorus
A promise, is a promise in my eyes
Canât say youâre gonna just to compromise
The very thing that keeps two hearts intertwined
A promise is a promise you canât deny, thereâs 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 wasnât 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 say, for that heâll love her forever
She kept her word to him, for that heâll love her forever
Chorus
A promise is a promise, in my eyes
Canât say youâre gonna just to compromise
The very thing that keeps two hearts intertwined
A promise is a promise you canât deny, thereâs no way
A manâs only as good as his word
Instrumental break
Her wedding day and sheâs thinking âbout the way he won her affection
She was so cynical about love âcause she didnât 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 sheâs glad she did because he came for real
And he did, just what he said, for that sheâll love him forever
He kept his word to her, for that sheâll love him forever
Chorus
A promise is a promise, in my eyes
Canât say youâre gonna just to compromise
The very thing that keeps two hearts intertwined
A promise is a promise you canât deny, thereâs no way
No way, there ainât no way
A manâs only as good as his word
