Broken Promises
 

Broken Promises

On that rainy night in our small town
You asked me if I'd ride around
I'd known you nearly all my life
Then a few short months I became your wife

Before God and family, we said, "I do."
Not knowing the trails we'd go through
That sweet night I was so afraid
You held me close and doubts drifted away

Promises should not be broken
Special words are left unspoken
You said you'd love me till the end
And that you would always be my friend
You'd stand beside me through all kinds of weather
And we'd face it, whatever--you and me together

Days and months have turned to years
We have two children now to rear
You have a job that takes most your time
I have the kids to keep in line

Promises should not be broken
Special words are left unspoken
You said you'd love me till the end
And that you would always be my friend
You'd stand beside me through all kinds of weather
And we'd face it, whatever--you and me together

Each night you come home we hardly speak
I reach out to touch you, you turn your cheek
Looking back into our past
I would have always thought our love would last

Oh darling....
Promises should not be broken
Special words should always be spoken
Will you love me till the end?
And will you always be my friend?
Stand beside me through all bad weather
Yes we can make it, right now, you and me forever.

Very cool .. and very singable .. i was humming it to a tune as i read.. :)..

keep it up.

Thanks Silver. :)

I have the country singer, but I can't think of her name. She is very well known and lovely. And no, it's not Faith Hill. :D

That's great Sugah! It's lovely and sad.
Were you thinking of Shania Twain, perhaps?

Thank you girl!

Although she would be good Tana, that was not the one I was thinking of. She is very attractive and she did have short dark hair. She sang that song about Angels and about the little boy..........jeeze, you can tell I'm a big country fan, can't ya?? LOL!

Seems like she did one about women reaching different stages in life too. Oh man.............I stink at trivia!

Martina McBride - Concrete Angel ? and this one's for the Girls?

I'm not much of a country gal either, but her lyrics in those got me.

I definitely see her adding her voice to this one :)

YES!!! That is who it is!!! How uncanny!:D Well, at least that rests my mind abit. Now...........I'll just CALL her up and see what she says. Heh, heh, heh.

I've always enjoyed ALL of your writings SugahBritches, here and on other boards we both frequent. Thank you for sharing. :)
