The Promise

Kristofferson Kris

A Moment Of Forever

The Promise

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
