The Promise

If you need a friend,
 Don't look to a stranger,
 You know in the end, I'll always be there.
 And 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 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 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 a while,
 I'll make you fall for me, I promise, I promise you I will.
