FRAMING HANLEY LYRICS - The Promise

"The Promise"



She said it's just like Hollywood

Now I'm afraid

Because the boy forgets the girl

While she sits home and waits

But you promised me you won't

And you've never lied so please don't



If you want L. A. then go to L. A.

Despite the miles between us

My heart will never change

Cuz you're all that it beats for

When you're all back to that door



I'm not saying that I don't believe

I'm exactly where I want to be

Don't you take that from me no



You know I still get lost in your eyes

With your lips and your kiss and your hand in mine

You're all that I need

And I promise I'll sleep fine tonight

Just knowing you're here by my side

Don't give this up, don't give this up



I'm not saying that I don't believe

I'm exactly where I want to be

Don't you take that from me no



You keep on running, you're running away

I'll be here waiting wishing you could see

But I'll just remember the promise that you made whoa



I'll keep on fighting, I'm fighting for you

I swear I would give you the sun and the moon

If you'll just remember the promise that you made



Oh, oh, oh, oh

I'm not saying that I don't believe

I'm exactly where I want to be

Don't you take that from me no

I'm not saying that I don't believe

I'm exactly where I want to be

Don't you take that from me

Don't you take that from me



Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
