I'm gonna saddle up that young chestnut stallion    Cause I know he can run like the wind    Across the desert, the pass through the mountains    Yes that horse of mine might be my only friend    He never lies to me the way that you do dear    When I let him go he stands right by my side    And that's more than I can ever say about you    So I guess I'll just get on his back and ride       CHORUS    Take our picture in the frame down from the counter    Let out soul and your memories speak    As I ride through the night I will remember    The Promise that you made that you just could not keep       On a high ridge many miles from the city    Far away your bright lights they shine    And now the chestnut he's tired and he's so weary    But somehow I know he'll take me to the end of the line       REPEAT CHORUS       The Promise that you make that you just could not keep
