Promise To Try
Little girl don't you forget her faceLaughing away your tearsWhen she was the one who felt all the pain
Little girl never forget her eyesKeep them alive insidePromise to try - but it's not the same
Keep your head held high, ride like the windNever look behind, life isn't fairThat's what you said, so I try not to care
Little girl don't run away so fastI think you forgot to kiss - kiss her goodbye
Will she se me cry when I stumble and fallDoes she hear my voice in the night when I callWipe away all your tears, it's gonna be all right
I fought to be so strong, I guess you knewI was afraid you'd go away, too
Little girl you've got to forget the pastAnd learn to forgive meI promise to try - but it feels like a lie
Don't let memory play games with your mindShe's a faded smile frozen in timeI'm still hanging on, but i'm doing it wrongCan't kiss her goodbye - but I promise to try
