“I Promise”
we were wandering free
we were wandering free
journey to the west and suddenly
my eyes can see
turned some strangers into friends
flew on wings home again
but we were wandering free
we were wandering free
chorus:
I was meant to meet you
the stars decreed this long ago
oh we leapt across the creek
no one fell in thankfully
how could I forget you
these are my memories to keep
I promise I won’t forget you
promise you’ll do the same
all those simple days
all those simple days
in a private room where
everything is green and blue
spilled my heart into your ear
you spoke things I couldn’t hear
oh, all those simple days
all those simple days
chorus:
I was meant to meet you
the stars decreed this long ago
flying through the mountain park
on the wings of meadowlark
how could I forget you
these are my memories to keep
I promise I won’t forget you
promise you’ll do the same
you’ve given me about everything
I needed without even trying
I’ll keep in mind and in my dreams
moments we grasped immortality
you’ve given me about everything
I’ll preserve it in musicality
you haven’t seen the last of me
overcoming time and geography
chorus:
I was meant to meet you
the stars decreed this long ago
the scent of the pine trees and
the photos of you and me
how could I forget you
these are my memories to keep
I promise I won’t forget you
promise you’ll do the same
promise I won’t forget you
promise you’ll do the same
