i promise

will i always be there for you?
when you need someone, will i be that one you need?
will i do all my best to, to protect you?
when the tears get near your eyes,
will i be the one that's by your side?
will i be there when you call me in the middle of the night?
will i keep the rain from falling down into your light? 
i promise,  
i promise i will

will i take tender care of you?
take your darkest night and make it bright for you
will i be there to make you strong and to lean on?
when this world has turned so cold
will i be the one that's there to hold?

will i be there when you call me in the middle of the night?
will i keep the rain from falling down into your light? 
i promise, 
i promise i will

and i love you more every day
and nothing will take that love away
when you need someone 
i promise i'll be there for you

stacie orrico, i promise
