Promise me
Promise me
Promise me
Promise me

People can make commitments they can't keep
But we know we aren't that cheap
Can you promise me
That you won't ever never ever
Make me weep
Why can't you feel the way I do
Love and cherish me

I will be there for you
If you'll be here for me
And I will do all I can
To be your everything
Please don't say maybe
Just make me your baby

Promise me
Promise me
That your love will never ever change
Don't start actin' strange
Promise me
Promise me
That your love will never ever change
My love's not a game

Your love is there for sure
As the sky above
But I can't afford to lose
This love
This special love
Why won't you say that it's true
Say you'll always be there for me
For me

I will be there for you
If you'll be here for me
And I will do all I can
To be your everything
Please don't say maybe
Just make me your baby

Promise me
Promise me
That your love will never ever change
Don't start actin' strange
Promise me
Promise me
That your love will never ever change
My love's not a game


Let me know from your heart
This love of ours is special
You're the one I'm waiting for
Tell me you want me
I've been true from the start
But I can't wait forever
Promise me
Promise me
Promise me your love

Promise me
Promise me
That your love will never ever change
Don't start actin' strange
Promise me
Promise me
That your love will never ever change
My love's not a game

Just holdin' your hand
Seein' you smile
I can't live without you
