I Promised Myself

Nick Kamen

I promised myself

I promised I'd wait for you

The midnight hour

I know you'll shine on through

I promised myself

I promised the world to you

I give you flowers

You make my dreams come true



How many of us out there

Feel the need to run and look for shelter?



I promised myself

That I'd say a prayer for you

A brand new tomorrow

Where all you wish comes true

I promised myself

That I'd make it up to you

My sister and brother

Know I'm in love with you



How many of us out there

Feel the pain of losing what was once theirs?

God I know what people say about her

No mistake, who can live without love?



(I promised myself

That I'd wait for you)

I give you flowers

You make my dreams come true



In the midnight hour

I will wait for you

I will wait for you

I will wait for you



In the midnight hour

I will wait for you

I will wait for you

I will wait for you
