The Promise
VERSE
When we first met, our eyes locked on each other
Somehow, we knew that we would be together forever
Like souls that have met in the past.
You always said I was your protector,
I always knew you were my princess
CHORUS
We promised that hand in hand, we’d chase the stars
Our love will light the dark, no matter where we are
When the end comes, we promised to face it together
We’ll face it true together forever; just me and you
VERSE
In the beginning, we faced all kinds of hardship.
From poverty to starvation, you made me finish what I started
You said you couldn’t be the reason for my failure.
So, we made it, together with your faith and persistence
I was happy to provide; you were my princess, my love
CHORUS
We promised that hand in hand, we’d chase the stars
Our love will light the dark, no matter where we are
When the end comes, we promised to face it together
We’ll face it true together forever; just me and you
VERSE
We moved and wandered to find the right place.
You were so young, but strong in your faith, your love was like no other
You were the mother of only dreams; you cared for when you could
But fate was against us, and your trials severe
But through love, faith, and God; we always prevailed
CHORUS
We promised that hand in hand, we’d chase the stars
Our love will light the dark, no matter where we are
When the end comes, we promised to face it together
We’ll face it true together forever; just me and you
VERSE
As time went on, our love only grew; there became no difference in me and you
Our hearts: the same, our heaven was granted, God’s grace smiled upon us
But the time for our promise came too soon
You faced it with dignity; like no other, your faith so strong
You showed me what it meant to be a true person of grace.
The true princess, you of my dreams; I will love you forever.
REFRAIN
We promised that hand in hand, we’d chase the stars
Our love will light the dark, no matter where we are
When the end comes, we promised to face it together
Forgive me, love; I broke my promise, but in a dream, you understood
You asked me to lock our fingers together with the promise you remembered.
I have to finish my time here; we’ll face it true together forever; just me and you
