All I Can Promise Is All That I Have

by Thepainwithinme   Sep 18, 2012


I can't promise you forever,
but i can promise you today.
i can't promise i won't hurt you,
but i can promise that i'll stay.
i can't show you the whole world,
but i can show you this old town.
i can't vow to love you all my life,
but i can vow to love you now.

i can't give you all you ask for,
but i can give you what you need.
i can't give you all you've ever wanted,
but i can try to give you me.

i could promise you everything,
but i couldn't follow through.
i could promise you i'll try my best,
but that's all that i can do.
