I cannot promise you the sun will rise each day
But I can promise to bring sunshine to your life
I cannot promise you will never feel any pain
But I can promise to try to take the pain away

I cannot promise you I will have all the answers
But I can promise you I will not be the question
I cannot promise you I will always understand you
But I can promise you I will always listen

I cannot promise you that I won’t grow old
But I can promise you that my love for you will never
I cannot promise you an easy path through life
But I can promise you will never walk it alone

I cannot promise you everything material
But I can promise you everything money can’t buy
I cannot promise you eternal life
But I can promise you eternal love
