[Verse 1]   It was a Thursday afternoon   When you told me that you'd be going away to school   I couldn't think of what I should say   Because with you i'm so happy that your leaving me   Oh      [Bridge]   And I don't want to hold you back   I just want to love you back   I don't want everyone to forget   The love that we shared      [Chorus]   And promise me, you'll never forget me   Promise me, the feelings will stay the same   And promise me that our love is everlasting   Boy all I need is you to promise me      [Verse 2]   I never thought there would come a day   That we would be going our seperate ways baby   But even now you won't be here with me   I want you to know    that you're the only love that a girl could ever need      [Bridge]   And I don't want to hold you back   I just want to love you back   I don't want everyone to forget   The love that we shared      [Chorus]   So promise me, you'll never forget me   Promise me, the feelings will stay the same   And promise me that our love is everlasting   Boy all I need is you to promise me      Boy all I need to know is that I have your heart for everything   And all that really matters is that your the love I want for me   Hope we remain and be together boy    And I don't care i'll wait forever boy   If you do what gain      [Chorus]   Promise me, you'll never forget me   Promise me, the feelings will stay the same   And promise me our love is everlasting   Boy all I need is you and I promise me      Promise me, feelings will stay the same   And promise me that our love is everlasting   Boy all I need is you to promise me
