I Promise Lyrics

If you stepped back,
And realized
Im sure that youll see,
That these words
That were spoken eventually
Will dwell in my conscience
Til my dying day.
Oh what can I say
To change your perception,
Want me by your side?
The fact that youve moved on
Makes me wanna cry.
If you open your door
Ill be there with arms wide
Just begging and praying
For one more goodbye.
So Ill wait for you,
Even though you dont want me to.

Because Im not over you.
I promise.
This word they call love,
Come push or to shove,
I meant it and now Im in tears,
My love.
Oh, my love.
Oh.

I keep telling myself that
Its not what it seems.
And wish that you wouldnt keep
Haunting my dreams.
Ill shoot out of bed
And wake up in a sweat.
How could I forget?
I imagined the worst when
You were on the phone
As you sat there,
And told me
That you were alone.
I could see him;
I know how he makes you behave,
That this wasnt the girl that I kissed on our date.
But Ill wait for you,
Even though you dont want me to.
Because Im not over you.
I promise.
This word they call love,
Come push or to shove,
I meant it and now Im in tears,
Because Im not over you.
I promise,
You wont see this face
Show up at your place.
Although Im in town,
Ill stay here.
My love.
Oh, my love.
My love.
Oh, my love.
And I should know better,
Give up while I can.
And prove to the world
That Ill be my own man.
You broke me
And took me along for the ride
And this pain that youve left me
Should make me subside

But Im not over you
(Im not over you
Im not over you
Im not over you)
I promise.
This word they call love,
Come push or to shove,
(I wished I could do anything to get you back)
I meant it and now Im in tears,
Because Im not over you (cause Im over you)
I promise,
You wont see this face
Show up at your place. (Dont let me go)
Although Im in town,
Ill stay here.

Cause Im not over you
I promise.
This word they call love,
Come push or to shove,
I meant it and now Im in tears,
My love.
