Nothing is promised to me and you

So why will we let this thing go?

Baby, I promise that I'll stay true

Don't let nobody say it ain't so

And, baby, I promise

That I will never leave

And everything will be alright

I, I promise these things to you

Girl, just believe

I promise

Said I know that things just ain't been right

Forever's such a very long time

We never even had a fight

Don't let no one change your mind

'Cause they don't know how much I care

They don't know the things we share unless they're here, babe

But since they're not

How can they say that I'm not true? Oh, oh, oh, whoa-whoa

If you need a love, I got the love that you need

Said, I got the love, whoa

Ain't no way that they can take that from me

They can't take that from me

And I pray to God one day they will see

They'll see that I'm all that you need

Oh, oh, oh, whoa

Nothing is promised to me and you

So why will we let this thing go?

Oh, baby

Baby, I promise that I'll stay true

I'll stay true

Don't let nobody say it ain't so

Don't let nobody say it ain't so

And, baby, I promise

That I will never leave

And everything will be alright

I promise these things to you

Girl, just believe

I promise

When I think of all the times I said

That I will see you another day

Baby, nothing's gonna change, yes, it is

Said you mean the world to me

And, baby girl, I'll keep you first, yeah

'Cause that's the kind of love you deserve

And you know I got a love if you need a love, yeah

If you need a love, I got the love that you need

Oh, yeah

Ain't no way that they can take that from me

Ain't no way I'm gonna let them take it

And I pray to God one day they will see

And I swear to you, you 'cause I promise, oh, girl

Nothing is promised to me and you

So why will we let this thing go?

Baby, I promise that I'll stay true

Don't let nobody say it ain't so

And, baby, I promise

That I will never leave

I will never leave you

And everything will be alright

I promise these things to you

Girl, just believe

I promise

You're the only one I want in my life

'Cause you're the only one I want in my life

And I promise everything is alright, girl

Promise everything will be alright, yeah

You're the only one I want in my life
