The Promise Lyrics

Official lyrics for The Promise, performed by Kris Kristofferson.

You gave me back my soul again by showin' me The laughter and the wonder in your eyes Saved me from the shuttered man i used to be Opened up the windows of my life And the happiness you've given me for lovin' you Is sweeter love and deeper every day I can't stop the changes that you're growin' through Or someone new from stealin' you away Chorus: So darlin' when it's time you can spread your wings And i'll set you free - to fly away - and it's ok Cause darlin' time changes everything But it won't change me I love you - oh... i love you Inside of me you'll always be my valentine I pray your freedom makes your dreams come through As long as there's a heartbeat in this soul of mine You'll know there's someone so in love with you Chorus: So darlin' when it's time you can spread your wings And i'll set you free - to fly away - and it's ok Cause darlin' time changes everything But it won't change me I love you - oh... i love you
