in a place i knew well
beside you a seat
i said to myself
'now there's a girl that i'd like to meet'
let me stay a while
we can talk for weeks
just enough time for you
for you to see the real me
and all that we can be

everything about us
is hanging on a promise
if you think i doubt us
and i can't be honest
take my reassurance
and let it give you solace
you're all i ever wanted

in the curve of your face
in a dress that you wear
when you walk with grace
in the curl of your hair
your beauty reaches me
like sunlight on a warm wedding day
but i still love you
even in the pouring rain
this is why i say

everything about us
is hanging on a promise
if you think i doubt us
and i can't be honest
take my reassurance
and let it give you solace
you're all i ever wanted

how the years have passed
i've seen all the trouble life's brought to you
but our love will last
don't think for a moment i've doubted you

everything about us
is hanging on a promise
if you think i doubt us
and i can't be honest
take my reassurance
and let it give you solace
you're all i ever wanted
