The Promise

Debby Boone

Say good-bye

Why I can barely say goodnight

If I can hardly take my eyes from yours

How far can I go



Walk away

The thought would never cross my mind

I couldn't turn my back on spring or fall

Your smile least of all



When I say always I mean forever

I trust tomorrow as much as today

I am not afraid to say I love you

And I promise you I'll never say good-bye



We're dancers on a crowded floor

While other dancers live from song to song

Our music goes on, on and on

And if I never leave your arms

I really would have traveled everywhere

For my world is there



When I say always I mean forever

I trust tomorrow as much as today

I am not afraid to say I love you

And I promise you I'll never say good-bye



How could I ever say good-bye
