[Chorus]
I promised myself
I promised I'd wait for you
In the midnight hour
I know you'll shine on through
I promised myself
I promised the world to you
I gave you flowers
You made my dreams come true

[Bridge]
How many of us out there
Feel the need
To run and look for shelter

[Chorus]
I promised myself
That I'd say a prayer for you
A brand new tomorrow
Where all your wish comes true
I promised myself (I promised, I promised)
That I'd make it up to you
My sister and brother
Know I'm in love with you

[Bridge]
How many of us out there
Feel the pain
Of losing what was once there
God, I know
What people say about her
No mistake
Who can live without her

[Interlude]
I promised myself
(I promised, I promised)

[Bridge]
In the midnight hour I will wait for you
I will wait for you (I'll be waiting)
I will wait for you (I will wait for you)
In the midnight hour I will wait for you
I will wait for you (I will wait for you)
I will wait for you (I will wait for you)

[Chorus]
I promised myself (I promised, baby)
I promised I'd wait for you (I promised I'd do, I'd do)
In the midnight hour (I promise, I promise)
I know you'll shine on through (I'll know you'll shine on through)
I promised myself (I promise, I promise)
I promised the world to you (I promised the world to you)
I gave you flowers (I gave you flowers)
You made my dreams come true (You made my dreams come true)
