I Promise Lyrics

If you stepped sat back,
And realized
I'm sure that you'll 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
I'll be there with arms wide
Just begging and praying
For one more goodbye.
So I'll wait for you,
Even though you don't want me to.

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

I keep telling myself that
It's not what it seems.
And wish that you wouldn't keep
Haunting my dreams.
I'll 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 wasn't the girl that I kissed on our date.
But I'll wait for you,
Even though you don't want me to.

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

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