I Promise Lyrics by Phyllis Sinclair

Fence Posts and Stones

2006

I don’t promise, always sunshine
Always blue skies, bed of roses to lay on
I don’t promise constant laughter
Happy ever after, stuff that fairy tales are made of
But I promise to you my trust
Words to love to lift you up
A faithful friend to the end
On this you can depend
I promise
I don’t promise only pleasure
Days of leisure, no more hard times, hereafter
I don’t promise unfading beauty, shapely body, skin of satin
To gaze on
But I promise to you my hand
A heart that will understand
A companion through the years
Therе to dry your tears
I promise, I promise
I promisе when the world seems dark and cold
And it’s hard to break a smile
I’ll be there just sit with you
And listen for a while
I don’t promise, earthly riches
Diamond ditches, cloaks of leather
To clothe you
I don’t promise ivory towers, velvet flowers, stuff that make believe Is made of
But I promise when my hair turns grey
And we come to the end of our day
You’ll find me there by your side
On this you can rely
I promise
I promise
I promise
I promise
