Jelani Aryeh
The Promise
[Verse 1: Samia]
If you need a friend
Don't look to a stranger
You know, in the end
I'll always be there
And when you're in doubt
And when you're in danger
Take a look all around
And I'll be there

[Chorus: Samia]
I'm sorry but I'm just thinkin' of the right words to say
I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be
But if you wait around a while, I'll make you fall for me
I promise, I promise you I will

[Verse 2: Jelani Aryeh]
When your day is through
And so is your temper
You'll know what to do
I'm gonna always be there
Sometimes if I shout
It's not what's intended
These words just come out
With no cross to bear
[Chorus: Jelani Aryeh]
I'm sorry but I'm just thinkin' of the right words to say
I know thеy don't sound the way I planned them to bе
But if you wait around a while, I'll make you fall for me
I promise, I promise you
I'm sorry but I'm just thinkin' of the right words to say
I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be
But if you wait around a while, I'll make you fall for me
I promise, I promise you I will

[Bridge: Samia]
I need to tell ya
I need to tell ya
I gotta tell ya

[Chorus: Samia & Jelani Aryeh]
I'm sorry but I'm just thinkin' of the right words to say
I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be
But if you wait around a while, I'll make you fall for me
I promise, I promise you
I'm sorry but I'm just thinkin' of the right words to say
I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be
But if I had to walk the world, I'd make you fall for me
I promise, I promise you I will
