Promise Ain't Enough
Don't wanna open your heart
You're afraid from the start
That a new love's gonna let you down
There is something you should know
Before you give up and go
I don't believe in the run around
I just want to define myself
And show you how l feel
If a promise ain't enough (if a promise ain't enough)
Then a touch says everything (a touch says everything, everything)
Got to hold you in my arms (hold you in my arms)
'Til you feel what I mean (feel what I mean)
Know that my heart just tells me what to say
But words can only prove so much (prove so much)
If a promise ain't enough (if a promise ain't enough)
Hold onto my love
Though my words can't describe
How I'm feeling all inside
Does my touch say anything to you (touch say anything to you)
I'm not afraid to take time
'Cause I know you'll find
That I'm real and my touch is true (my touch is true)
It's taken a lifetime to find my heart
And I give it all to you
If a promise ain't enough (if a promise ain't enough)
Then a touch says everything (a touch says everything, everything)
Got to hold you in my arms (hold you in my arms)
'Til you feel what I mean (feel what I mean)
Know that my heart just tells me what to say
But words can only prove so much (prove so much)
If a promise ain't enough (if a promise ain't enough)
Hold onto my love
It took a lifetime to find what I want
I won't let it get away
If a promise ain't enough (if a promise ain't enough)
Then a touch says everything (a touch says everything, everything)
Got to hold you in my arms (hold you in my arms)
'Til you feel what I mean (feel what I mean)
Know that my heart just tells me what to say
But words can only prove so much (prove so much)
If a promise ain't enough (if a promise ain't enough)
Hold on to my love
Hold on to my love
You're afraid from the start
That a new love's gonna let you down
There is something you should know
Before you give up and go
I don't believe in the run around
I just want to define myself
And show you how l feel
If a promise ain't enough (if a promise ain't enough)
Then a touch says everything (a touch says everything, everything)
Got to hold you in my arms (hold you in my arms)
'Til you feel what I mean (feel what I mean)
Know that my heart just tells me what to say
But words can only prove so much (prove so much)
If a promise ain't enough (if a promise ain't enough)
Hold onto my love
Though my words can't describe
How I'm feeling all inside
Does my touch say anything to you (touch say anything to you)
I'm not afraid to take time
'Cause I know you'll find
That I'm real and my touch is true (my touch is true)
It's taken a lifetime to find my heart
And I give it all to you
If a promise ain't enough (if a promise ain't enough)
Then a touch says everything (a touch says everything, everything)
Got to hold you in my arms (hold you in my arms)
'Til you feel what I mean (feel what I mean)
Know that my heart just tells me what to say
But words can only prove so much (prove so much)
If a promise ain't enough (if a promise ain't enough)
Hold onto my love
It took a lifetime to find what I want
I won't let it get away
If a promise ain't enough (if a promise ain't enough)
Then a touch says everything (a touch says everything, everything)
Got to hold you in my arms (hold you in my arms)
'Til you feel what I mean (feel what I mean)
Know that my heart just tells me what to say
But words can only prove so much (prove so much)
If a promise ain't enough (if a promise ain't enough)
Hold on to my love
Hold on to my love
