Standin' On The Promises

(album: Lookin' Back At Myself - 1994)

A million reasons why I could
But only one why I won't
'Cause the one who'd probably never know
Is the reason that I don't
I can't say that I'm not tempted
I'm just like any other man
But when I walk out of here alone woman
I hope you understand

She's standing on the promises
That she gave to me
So I'm standing on the promises
I promised her I'd keep

It'd be so easy for anyone
To justify the wrong
Fall right into your arms
And say to hell with being strong
But there's one thing I know for sure
She'd never play this kind of game
And for her faith in out love
I'll do her the same 'cause

She's standing on the promises
That she gave to me
So I'm standing on the promises
I promised her I'd keep

Yes she's standing on the promises
That she gave to me
So I'm standing on the promises
I promised her I'd keep
