Promise Songtext

von Grey Eye Glances

You say the sun's coming down
I should look around
And see the things you desire
You're standing there so sure
Always feeling so secure in love
Me, I'm a bird on a wire
Now all the facts are here
Your intentions so clear
You've outlined your grand design
You're handing me your life
But could you give me some more time
Because I'm not quite finished with mine

'Cause all that I wanted
All that I ever believed I could be
I'm starting to see
The things I've been shown
I can finally stand on my own
Please don't take it from me
I don't mean to doubt you see
But I've been takin' care of me
As long as I can recall
It may be a sacrifice
But I'll just have to look twice
To read the writing on the wall
Well I would do anything
I'd give anything
To see that love just comes and comes and never goes
'Cause all that I wanted
All that I ever believed I could be
Begins with the love
That's contained in a promise
And baby you've got it from me
Please just take it from me
Now the car door's ajar
How'd we ever get this far
When did things start moving so fast?
The boys have been waiting
There's no hesitating
I wish this one moment could last and last and last
'Cause all that I wanted
All that I ever believed I could be
I'm starting to see
The things I've been shown
And I'll never go it alone
'Cause now I understand

That all that I want
All that I ever believe I will need
Is waiting for me by the side of the road
Waiting for me to get in
Waiting for me to walk through the door
Waiting for our life to begin
So I give him my hand
And he takes it for me
