A Promise
Carl Thomas Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I'm showing you more love
And I'm sensitive to your fears
Hope I'm answering your prayers
Oh Lord, guess I'm yours if you're sure
And Lord, what else is there to ask for?
There's a promise on this mountain that I'm climbing just for you
It's just something that people share
Can't you feel love is in the air?
More sacrifice, more truth
I'll be more open with you
And I promise girl, there's no way no one could ever take my faith
Oh Lord, guess I'm yours if you're sure
And Lord, what else is there to ask for?
[Chorus: Repeat 4X]
I've grown with you
Not a moment too soon
'Cause I'm waking up, reaching out, for a love brand new
(Repeat 2X)
[Chorus: Repeat 2X]
In Carl Thomas's song "A Promise," the lyrics express a strong sense of commitment and dedication to a significant other. The singer pledges to show more affection, sensitivity, and openness to their partner's fears. He recognizes his faith as an essential factor in their relationship and promises to keep it strong. The repetition of "Oh Lord, guess I'm yours if you're sure/And Lord, what else is there to ask for?" reinforces the importance of their relationship and the trust they have in each other.
The chorus of the song mentions a promise, which the singer is climbing a mountain to fulfill. This mountain represents the challenges and obstacles of a long-term relationship. The promise, however, is something beautiful and unbreakable that only two people in love can share. The singer suggests that love is in the air and asks his partner if they can feel it too.
The last verse of the song expresses growth and a renewed sense of love. The singer has awakened to a brand new kind of love and is reaching out to his partner in a more profound way. The repetition of the chorus four times at the end of the song reinforces the idea of the promise being something that is continually present in their relationship.
