I Promise to Love You

Jerry Jeff WalkerFor your birthday, I thought that I'd give you

A little something from me

A gift you would treasure, something you'd always keep

At first I thought maybe some jewelry

With lots of diamonds or gold

But any man with deep pockets can go and buy one of thoseChorus:

No, I wanted something, something that money can't buy

A gift I could give you, and it would last for all time

So I wrote you this love song, one I hoped that you'd like

And I've wrapped it in a promise, to love you all of my lifeThese days it's so easy to buy things, no effort needed at all

Anything you desire, all you do is make a call

But I wonder how often it's happened, once you've brought it home

That shiny new trinket now leaves you cold and alone

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
