[Verse 1: Brian]
It's in the silences
The words you never say
I see it in your eyes
It always starts the same way
It seems like everyone we know
Is breaking up, oh
Does anybody ever stay in love
Anymore, oh, oh?

[Chorus: All & Brian]
I promise you
From the bottom of my heart
I will love you till death do us part
I promise you as a lover and a friend
I will love you like I never love again
With everything I am

[Verse 2: Nick]
Oooh, oooh, oooh
I see you look at me
When you think I’m not aware
You’re searching for clues
Of just how deep my feelings are
How do you prove the sky is blue
The oceans wide?
All I know is how I feel
When I look into your eyes

[Chorus: All & Nick]
I promise you (I promise you)
From the bottom of my heart
(From the bottom of my heart, baby)
I will love you till death do us part
(Sugar, darling, I promise, yeah)
I promise you (I promise you)
As a lover and a friend
I will love you like I never love again
With everything that I am, ooh

[Brigde: AJ]
Oh, there are no guarantees
That's what you always say to me
But late at night I feel the tremble
In your touch, baby (oh, yeah)
Oh, what I'm trying to say to you
I never said to anyone, I promise...

[Chorus: All, (AJ), Nick & Brian]
I promise you (you, you, you, you)
From the bottom of my heart (from the bottom of my heart)
I will love you till death do us part
(Oh, sugar, darling, I promise, yeah)
I promise you (I promise you)
As a lover and a friend (as a lover and a friend)
I will love you like I never love again
With everything I am
I promise you (with everything I am)
From the bottom of my heart (from the bottom of my heart)
I will love you till death do us part
(I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you)
I promise you (I promise you, babe)
As a lover and a friend
I will love you like I never love again
With everything I am (you're everything I am)

[Outro: Brian]
Oh, yeah, with everything I am...

The Backstreet Boys are the most successful boy band in history, having sold over 130 million records worldwide, and with their first nine albums reaching the top 10 on the Billboard 200. Florida natives A. J. McLean, Howie Dorough, and Nick Carter, along with Kentucky transplant Kevin Richardson, were joined in a band once they attended Lou Pearlman’s auditions for a vocal group in 1992, with the group being completed by Kevin’s cousin Brian Litrell. Once took under the wing of Swedish producer Max Martin in 1995, the stage was set for global domination, attracting the lust of women and the anger of men. While the fad died down and Kevin even left for a while, the band never officially took a break or such.
