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

I'm sorry but I'm just thinking of the right words to say

(I promise you)

I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be

(I promise you)

But if you wait around a while I'll make you fall for me

(I promise you)

I promise, I promise you, I will

When your day is through

And so is your temper

You 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

I'm sorry but I'm just thinking of the right words to say

(I promise you)

I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be

(I promise you)

But if you wait around a while I'll make you fall for me

(I promise you)

I promise, I promise you

I'm sorry but I'm just thinking of the right words to say

(I promise you)

I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be

(I promise you)

And if I had to walk the world I'd make you fall for me

I promise you, I promise you I will

Gotta tell you

Need to tell you

Gotta tell you

I've gotta tell you

I'm sorry but I'm just thinking of the right words to say

(I promise you)

I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be

(I promise you)

But if you wait around a while I'll make you fall for me

(I promise you)

I promise, I promise you

I'm sorry but I'm just thinking of the right words to say

(I promise you)

I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be

(I promise you)

And if I had to walk the world I'd make you fall for me

I promise you, I promise you I will

I will, I will
