The Promise

Written by: Alan Bergman / Marilyn Bergman / David L. Shire

Say goodbye
Why, I can barely say goodnight
If I can hardly take my eyes
From yours
How far could I go
Walk away
The thought would never cross my mind
I couldn’t turn my back on spring
Or fall
Your smile least of all

When I say always
I mean forever
I trust tomorrow
As much as today
I am not afraid to say
I love you
And I promise you
I’ll never say goodbye

We’re dancers on a crowded floor
While other dancers live
From song to song
Our music goes on
On and on
And if I never leave your arms
I really will have traveled everywhere
For my world is there

When I say always
I mean forever
I trust tomorrow
As much as today
I am not afraid to say
I love you
And I promise you
I’ll never say goodbye

How could I ever say goodbye?
