The Promise

In the house of the Lord They promise To run hand in hand in the sun and in the rain. They promise To share their laughter and their tears. They promise To make a home And decorate it with colour and light. They promise To make their dreams reality. They promise To carry each other over the sea. They promise To cherish their love forever. They promise To live and die together.

Very nice one! I definitely agree with Lyrics man down below, the repeating phrase throughout is a great effect, to the constancy of any union. Always, Laura

Thanks Laura. I had written this one when I was quite young, but then re-wrote it when I was older. I'm glad the repetition sounds good.
