Lyrics of The Promise by Tracy Chapman

verse

If you
Wait for me
Then I'll
Come for you
Although I've traveled far
I always hold a place for you in my heart

verse

If you
Think of me
If you miss me once in awhile
Then I'll return to you
I'll return and fill that space in your heart

chorus

Remembering
Your touch
Your kiss
Your warm embrace
I'll find my way back to you
If you'll be waiting

verse

If you dream of me
Like I dream of you
In a place that's warm and dark
In a place where I can feel the beating of your heart

chorus

Remembering
Your touch
Your kiss
Your warm embrace
I'll find my way back to you
If you'll be waiting

verse

I've longed for you
And I have desired
To see your face, your smile
To be with you wherever you are

chorus

Remembering
Your touch
Your kiss
Your warm embrace
I'll find my way back to you
Please say you'll be waiting

verse

Together again
It would feel so good to be
In your arms
Where all my journeys end
If you can make a promise
If it's one that you can keep
I vow to come for you
If you wait for me

bridge

And say you'll hold
A place
For me
In your heart

outro

A place for me in your heart
A place for me in your heart
A place for me in your heart
Writer(s): Tracy Chapman
