Lyrics Set It Off – I Promise
Text:
If you stepped back and realized
I’m sure that you’ll see
That these words that were spoken eventually
Will dwell in my conscience
Oh what can I say to change your perception
Want me by your side?
The fact that you moved on
Makes me wanna cry
If you open your door
I’ll be there with arms wide
Just begging and praying
For one more goodbye
So I’ll wait for you
Even though you don’t want me to
Because I’m not over you
I promise
This word they call love
Come push or to shove
I meant it and now I’m in tears, my love
Oh my love, oh..
I keep telling myself that
It’s not what it seems
And wish that you wouldn’t
Keep haunting my dreams
I’ll shoot out of bed and
Wake up in a sweat
How could I forget?
I imagined the worst when
You were on the phone
That you were alone
I could see him, I know how
He makes you behave
That this wasn’t the girl
That I kissed on our date
But I’ll wait for you
Even though you don’t want me to
Because I’m not over you
I promise
This word they call love
Come push or to shove
I meant it and now I’m in tears..
Because I’m not over you
I promise
You won’t see this face
Show up at your place
Although I’m in town
I’ll stay here, my love
Oh my love, my love
Oh my love
And I should know better
Give up while I can
And prove to the world
That I’ll be my own man
You broke me and took me
Along for the ride
And this pain that you’ve left me
Should make me subside
But I’m not over you
(I’m not over you
I’m not over you
I’m not over you)
I promise
This word they call love
Come push or to shove
(I wish I could do anything to get you back)
I meant it and now
I’m in tears
Because I’m not over you
(’cause I’m over)
I promise
You won’t see this face
Show up at your place
(Don’t let me go)
Although I’m in town
I’ll stay here
‘Cause I’m not over you
I promise
This word they call love
Come push or to shove
I meant it and now
I’m in tears
My love
