When I think about the turn my life has taken
I know itâ??s because of you, that I receive so many blessings
I had a home but no privacy, I didnâ??t know a thing about my legacy
When I realized you were there for me, I called on your name and you came
And you did, just what you said, for that Iâ??ll love you forever
You kept, your word to me, for that Iâ??ll love you forever

Chorus
A promise, is a promise in my eyes
Canâ??t say youâ??re gonna just to compromise
The very thing that keeps two hearts intertwined
A promise is a promise you canâ??t deny, thereâ??s no way

I think of when there was a young boy, not even two years old
Blessed with a mother who loved him so, she abandoned her dreams to nourish his own
It wasnâ??t easy for the two of them, but she knew she had to give him a chance
At a better life, it was only right, so she worked and she prayed
And she did, just what she say, for that heâ??ll love her forever
She kept her word to him, for that heâ??ll love her forever

Chorus
A promise is a promise, in my eyes
Canâ??t say youâ??re gonna just to compromise
The very thing that keeps two hearts intertwined
A promise is a promise you canâ??t deny, thereâ??s no way
A manâ??s only as good as his word

Instrumental break


Her wedding day and sheâ??s thinking â??bout the way he won her affection
She was so cynical about love â??cause she didnâ??t want to be heart broken again
He looked her in her eye with sincerity, said he only wanted to protect her so she
Took a chance on him and sheâ??s glad she did because he came for real
And he did, just what he said, for that sheâ??ll love him forever
He kept his word to her, for that sheâ??ll love him forever

Chorus
A promise is a promise, in my eyes
Canâ??t say youâ??re gonna just to compromise
The very thing that keeps two hearts intertwined
A promise is a promise you canâ??t deny, thereâ??s no way
No way, there ainâ??t no way
A manâ??s only as good as his word
