Said you'd be mine 'til the end of time
Said we'd be together from now on
No matter what the weather
Said that you and me were meant to be
Just like a leaf and a branch on a tree
Sweet talkin' laid it down
With that sweet talk, you turned me around
And I'm gonna hold you to your promise
Your promise to be mine
(I'm gonna hold you to your promise)
Oh, yes I am
(Your promise to be mine)
I'm in too deep to turn back now
I'm in way too deep over my head to turn back now
Oh, yes I am
You got me out here on a limb hanging over deep water
And baby, I can't swim
You promised to be mine 'til the end of time
And I know that's a long, long time
And I'm gonna hold you to your promise
Your promise to be mine
(I'm gonna hold you to your promise)
(Your promise to be mine)
Said your love is true
And that I'll always have that love
And I'm gonna hold you to that
I'm gonna hold you to that
I'm gonna hold you to your promise
(To your promise)
Your promise (To your promise)
To be mine
(I'm gonna hold you to your promise)
(Your promise to be mine)
(I'm gonna hold you to your promise)
(Your promise to be mine)
Said our love would always be sweeter than an apple
Fresher than a rose, stronger than a hurricane
And I'm gonna hold you to it, baby
Gonna hold you to it, baby
I'm gonna hold you to that promise that you made to me
I'm gonna hold you to your promise
Your promise to be mine (Promise)
I'm gonna hold you to your promise (Hold you)
Your promise to be mine (Hold you, hold you)
I'm gonna hold you to your promise
Your promise to be mine (Promise, promise)
I'm gonna hold you to your promise (To your promise)
Your promise to be mine (Promise)
