Promise me that you'll love me in the morning,

Promise me that you'll love me in the morning,
That we'll watch the sunrise each and every day.
Tell me that you'll hold me close to you tonight,
That you won't decide to run away someday.
Promise me that you'll love me the way I am,
That I don't need to be anything but me.
Tell me that our love won't fade away with time,
That our spirits will always be unique and free.
Promise me that you'll whisper in my ear,
Soft words to make things better if I cry.
You'll hold my hand when words are hard to find,
As we bid our loved ones a sad good-bye.
Promises can't keep away the unexpected,
They can't keep our love strong and new.
But they can help us build a life together,
They form a bond between my heart and you.
