If you need a friend,   don't look to a stranger,   You know in the end,   I'll always be there.      And when you're in doubt,   and when you're in danger,   Take a look all around,   and I'll be there.      I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking of the right words to say. (I promise)   I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be. (I promise)   But if you'll wait around a while, I'll make you fall for me,   I promise, I promise you I will.      When your day is through,   and so is your temper,   You know what to do,   I'm gonna always be there.      Sometimes if I shout,   it's not what's intended.   These words just come out,   with no gripe to bear.      I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking of the right words to say. (I promise)   I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be. (I promise)   But if you'll wait around a while, I'll make you fall for me,   I promise, I promise you...      I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking of the right words to say. (I promise)   I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be. (I promise)   And if I had to walk the world, I'd make you fall for me,   I promise, I promise you I will.      I gotta tell ya, I need to tell ya, I gotta tell ya, I gotta tell yaaaa ...      I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking of the right words to say. (I promise)   I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be. (I promise)   But if you'll wait around a while, I'll make you fall for me,   I promise, I promise you...      I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking of the right words to say. (I promise)   I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be. (I promise)   And if I had to walk the world, I'd make you fall for me,   I promise, I promise you I will ...   I will...   I will...   I will
