PROMISES
Da'Ville Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Baby I love you
I never meant to hurt you

When I said "I love you"
I meant every word I said
I don't want you to believe anything else
Can't give my heart, not no one else
'Cause no one means that much to me like you do
I know I made some mistakes (made some mistakes)
I know I caused you some pain (caused you some pain)
But I know that you and I can start all over again
Baby it's not too late (it's not too late)
All we need is some faith (all we need is some faith)
I believe in what we have and everything will be great

I made I change for you
And oh this time I promise
I never gonna hurt you again
The things I used to do
This time I promise
I never gonna do them again

I know you feeling like you can't do this anymore
But I don't wanna see you cry, can't walk right out that door
Don't left me standing with my heart on the floor
I made some promises to you and I've broken them before
Oh I made some mistakes (made some mistakes)
Oh I caused you some pain (I know I caused you some pain)
But I know that you and I can start all over again
Baby it's not too late (it's not too late)
All we need is some faith (all we need is some faith)
I believe in what we have and everything will be great

I made I change for you
And oh this time I promise
I never gonna hurt you again
The things I used to do
Oh this time I promise
I never gonna do them again

I made I change for you
And oh this time I promise
I never gonna hurt you again

For all the times I've cheated on you baby
(I never gonna cheat on you again)
I never gonna do it again
For all the lies that I told you baby
(I never gonna lie to you again)
I never gonna do it again
For all the times that I stayed up late
I never gonna do it again
For all the love except the pain
Oh I never gonna do it again

I made I change for you
And oh this time I promise
I never gonna hurt you again
The things I used to do
Oh this time I promise
I never gonna do them again

I made I change for you
And oh this time I promise
I never gonna hurt you again
The things I used to do
Oh this time I promise
I never gonna do them again





Oh this time I promise
I never gonna hurt you again
