Lyrics
The Promise (First Verse) I remember lonely nights. I remember our bar fights. I remember holding you and smellin the summer rain, but any way. I remember findin out. I remember sneakin out. I remember tellin you, when this was less real! (Chorus) And you may not know how this will go. And you may not stand, I'll take you by the hand. You can make believe how this will go. Or you can stay and make your promise's! (Second Verse) I remember lovin you. I remember our tattoos. I remember skippin stones with you out on the James, but any way. I remember our last dance. I remember our last stance. I remember tellin you, when you would still hear! (Chorus) And you may not know how this will go. And you may not stand, I'll take you by the hand. You can make believe how this will go. Or you can stay and make your promise's! (Bridge) Drippin wet in sweat, layin across the bed, wet thighed in surrender. You shoulda heard the words she said, when he could barely kiss her. He laid her on the bed and they made a perfect picture. You shoulda heard the words she said, when he kissed her...on the fifth day in November! (Chorus) And you may not know how this will go. And you may not stand, I'll take you by the hand. And you can make believe how this will go. Or you can stay and make your promise's!
