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
