[Verse 1]
Promise me
A lifetime of love and laughter
Promise me
Happiness is what you're after
And this my darling I will promise you
For every kiss you give me I'll give two
[Verse 2]
Promise me
You'll do your best to make this last forever
Promise me
We can spend a lifetime together
And this my darling I will promise you
For every year you give I'll give you two
[Verse 3]
Because I just hate disillusions
And relationships filled with confusion
And hopes that end in sad conclusions
Oh yeah, oh yeah (Promise me)
[Bridge]
Oh yeah (Promise me)
Ooo Ooo Ooooo Ooo Ooooo
[Verse 4]
Promise me, (Promise me)
Give me your word and I'll never doubt you
Run to my arms. (Promise me)
They were made to wrap about you
And this my darling I will promise you
For every step you make I'll make two
[Outro]
Promise me, (Promise me)
Give me your word and I'll never doubt you
Ohhhh love, (Promise me)
I won't want to stay here without you
Ooh
Promise me
A lifetime of love and laughter
Promise me
Happiness is what you're after
And this my darling I will promise you
For every kiss you give me I'll give two
[Verse 2]
Promise me
You'll do your best to make this last forever
Promise me
We can spend a lifetime together
And this my darling I will promise you
For every year you give I'll give you two
[Verse 3]
Because I just hate disillusions
And relationships filled with confusion
And hopes that end in sad conclusions
Oh yeah, oh yeah (Promise me)
