Betty Wright
I Promise You
[Vocals: Betty Wright, Marlon Jackson, both]
[Verse 1]
I promise you, that I will always be
In love with you my whole life through
Waitin' for you, and I will hold your hand
I'll understand
I promise you, please promise me
[Verse 2]
When the day is through
You will be the one I come runnin' to
I promise you, this is from my heart
And I will squeeze you tight with all my might
I promise you, please promise me
Oooo-ooooooo... oh, I love you
[Bridge]
Standing here, I'm waitin' for you to arrive
My dear, I want you here right by my side
And I will, girl I'll treat you nice all my life
[Verse 3]
Dreamin' of you seals my heart from pain
And there's no strain
I promise you that I will lovе you
Please promise mе that you will need me
I promise you that I will love you
I promise you, oh baby, oh baby... ooh!
[Outro]
I promise you that I will love you
Please promise me that you will need me
I promise you that I will love you
I promise you, oh baby, oh baby, oh baby, oh baby
I promise you that I will love you
Please promise me that you will need me
I promise you that I will love you
I promise you, I do, I do, I do, I do, oh hey...
I promise you that I will love you
Please promise me that you will need me
I promise you that I will love you
I promise you, I do (oh, tell me), I do (tell me, ooh!) hey...
I promise you that I will love you...
