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 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 cross 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 wait around a while,
 I'll make you fall for me
 I promise, I promise you I will
 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
 In fact, as you walk the world
 I'd make you fall for me
 I promise you, I promise you I will
 I will, I will, I will
 Yeah

 Gotta tell ya (gotta tell ya)

 I'm sorry but I'm just thinking
