My Promise

When everything around seems wrong, You feel there's no one to belong, You must not fear. When doubts begin to reign your  mind, A truth will save you, and you'll find -- I am sincere.   When distance appears to part us, And there's no bridge for words to pass, I am still here, Speaking the language of the heart. The wind tells you, though we're apart That I am near.   When time appears to move slowly And waiting makes you feel weary, Don't surrender. As I have promised you before -- Bringing with me my soul and more -- I will be there.
