When i think about the turn my life has taken

i know it's because of you that i recieve so many blessings

i had a home but no privacy

i didn't know a thing about my legacy

when i realized you were there for me,

i called on your name, you came,

you did just what you said

for that i'll love you forever

you kept your word to me

for that i'll love you forever



A promise is a promise

in my eyes

can't say your gonna just to compromise

the very thing that keeps two hearts entertwined

a promise is a promise, you can't deny

there's no way



I think of when there was a young boy

not even two years old

blessed with a mother that loved him so

she abandoned her dreams to nourish his own

it wasn't easy for the two of them

but she knew she had to give him a chance

at a better life

it was only right

so she worked, she prayed,

she did just what she said

for that he'll love her forever

she kept her word to him

For that he'll love her forever.



A promise is a promise

in my eyes

can't say your gonna just to compromise

the very thing that keeps two hearts entertwined

a promise is a promise, you can't deny

there's no way



A man's only as good as his word



Her wedding day and she's thinking about

the way he wanted her affection

She was so cynical about love

'cuz she didn't want to be heartbroken again

he looked her in her eye with sincerity

Said he only wanted to protect her

so she took a chance on him

and she's glad she did

because he came for real

and he did just what he said

for that she'll love him forever

he kept his word to her

for that she'll love him forever



A promise is a promise

in my eyes

can't say your gonna just to compromise

the very thing that keeps two hearts entertwined

a promise is a promise, you can't deny

there's no way



A man's only as good as his word
