Promise To Try Songtext
Little girl
don't you forget her face
Laughing away your tears
When she was the one
who felt all the pain

Little girl
never forget her eyes
Keep them alive inside
I promise to try
but it's not the same

Keep your head held high
ride like the wind
Never look behind,
life isn't fair
That's what you said,
so I try not to care

Little girl
don't run away so fast
I think you forgot to kiss
kiss her goodbye

Will she see me cry
when I stumble and fall
Does she hear my voice in the night when I call
Wipe away all your tears,
it's gonna be all right
I fought to be so strong,
I guess you knew
I was afraid
you'd go away, too

Little girl
you've got to forget the past
And learn to forgive me
I promise to try
but it feels like a lie

Don't let memory
play games with your mind
She's a faded smile
frozen in time
I'm still hanging on
but I'm doing it wrong
Can't kiss her goodbye
but I promise to try
