I promise

I promise
by Joel Howard

I don’t care what they say outside
You must know this fire
This look in my eyes
Precious son, dear, dear daughter
I can take you so much further!

I have promises you know nothing about
Maybe you’ve heard them
But I have promises you know nothing about
Until I’ve shown you them
Let me show you them now!

Lies have told you I’m passive
Confusion has shrunk me in your eyes
Disaster is your worst nightmare
I’ve been there, I know

Counting the hairs on your head
I was thinking of all that could have been
And the possibilities that might of been
Had you believed me, my friend
Will you believe me again?
