If I Hadn't Promised
If I hadn't promised you that I would do right
I'd be on my way anywhere tonight
If I hadn't promised you that I would stick around
I'd be on the road headed out of town
You couldn't tell me that you love me if I'm already gone
You'd have to find some other lover to love you from now on
Cause each one that's tried to hold me caught nothing but the breeze
While I was on to the next one just loving as I please
If I hadn't promised you that you're the only one
I'd be gone like a bullet from a gun
And if I hadn't promised you that I was all in
I'd be gone so fast your pretty head would spin
You couldn't tell me that you love me if I'm already gone
You'd have to find some other lover to love you from now on
I'd do my confessing with a guitar in my hand
And I'd serve out my penance just playing one-night stands
If I hadn't promised you for rich or poor
I'd already be ten steps out the door
And if I hadn't promised you for better or worse
I'd be gone before the end of this verse
And you couldn't tell me that you love me if I'm already gone
You'd have to find some other lover to love you from now on
Each one that's tried to hold me caught nothing but the breeze
While I was on to the next one just loving as I please
I'd be on my way anywhere tonight
If I hadn't promised you that I would stick around
I'd be on the road headed out of town
You couldn't tell me that you love me if I'm already gone
You'd have to find some other lover to love you from now on
Cause each one that's tried to hold me caught nothing but the breeze
While I was on to the next one just loving as I please
If I hadn't promised you that you're the only one
I'd be gone like a bullet from a gun
And if I hadn't promised you that I was all in
I'd be gone so fast your pretty head would spin
You couldn't tell me that you love me if I'm already gone
You'd have to find some other lover to love you from now on
I'd do my confessing with a guitar in my hand
And I'd serve out my penance just playing one-night stands
If I hadn't promised you for rich or poor
I'd already be ten steps out the door
And if I hadn't promised you for better or worse
I'd be gone before the end of this verse
And you couldn't tell me that you love me if I'm already gone
You'd have to find some other lover to love you from now on
Each one that's tried to hold me caught nothing but the breeze
While I was on to the next one just loving as I please
