I first began this song in 2015 and just finished it in April 2023. I wrote this for my Mom Joanne.

Lyrics

I Promise You By: Robin Lee Field 2015 (Finished song April 2023)

I don’t know what’s wrong with me
Could you please forgive me
For not listening to you, for always needing solitude
You and I are so much the same
But then again we’re as different as night and day
You know I’m quick on the trigger and you have the patience of a saint

I want to bury my head in the sand and close my eyes
Escape out the back door and hide when I think of that time
But these words well they mean so much more
Than any song I could write in my life
I promise you, I’ll be alright

I promise you, I’ll be alright
Whether my feet are still walking this earth
Whether you’re flying free in heaven’s sky
I promise you, when that day arrives
Your blood runs through my veins you’re my eternal flame
I’ll get through, I promise you

There is nothing wrong with you
You don’t need forgiveness too
Just to follow your will so don’t you ever waste it on guilt
You and I have so much to tell
Both of us yeah we’ve been through hell
And when I’m slow to remember you fill in the words to help me get through

I want to bury my head in the sand and close my eyes
Escape out the back door and hide when I think of that time
But these words well they mean so much more
Than any song I could sing in my life
Please promise me, you’ll be alright

I promise you, I’ll be alright
Whether my feet are still walking this earth
Whether you’re flying free in heaven’s sky
I promise you, when that day arrives
Your blood runs through my veins you’re my eternal flame
I’ll get through, I promise you
