[Mark T & Sonny]
 Holdin' hands  strollin' through the park (Oooohhh)
 Sweet memories (Yeahhh)
 Are torn apart (Ooohh)
 I made a promise I could not keep (I could not keep)
 I played around  oh girl  I made you weep

 [Chorus  Mark T & Sonny]
 I had a choice  and I chose wrong
 I made a promise  girl  to leave it alone
 You gave me trust  I threw it away
 Baby  please

 [NBK]

 Sonny, Son, Son
 Yeah

 How roses, love notes, and apologies does it take?
 How many more lonely nights do I stay awake?
 Reminiscin' of the times you would do whatever
 Sneak out your window so that we can be together
 And when your daddy said he would kill your boyfriend
 Not even he could seperate us back then
 I wish these thoughts would've been going through my mind
 When I broke this promise and I made you cry
 Forgive me, I wish it was a dream, that I might awake
 To your lovin' arms around me
 I guess I gave in to man's deepest weakness
 I'm at your mercy begging for forgiveness
 I had a choice and I chose wrong
 Now I'm trying to make it better writing you this song
 I love you more than anything up in this world
 Never wanna lose you, forgive me, girl, uh

 [Chorus]

 I sat back, took my time, wrote these rhymes
 Words I never express, the type of things that I'm sayin'
 Right out the top of the head, I ain't lyin'
 Even cried when I wrote it, and every time I read it
 Tear it up and throw it
 Think of back to the days when you didn't know what life was
 Cuz at the same time I gave it to ya, I took it from ya
 And now I understand why you can't look me in my eyes there again
 Sittin' underneath the candle light tryin' to 'rize the same lines
 Feel it even more when the paper tore from writin' so hard
 All hands down with my heart on the floor
 Cuz I knew I fucked up, comin' out a broken man
 Please, Lord, control my hand and have your angels bless these words
 >From a man coming from a broken world
 And every time I stopped, your face I saw, your voice I heard
 Visions of your tears hauntin' my dreams
 Forgive me

 [Chorus]

 [Mark T & Sonny]
 Cuz girl, you know that I wanna love you forever more
 Forever and ever, never, n-n-never leave me, baby
 I wanna have you right by my side
 Cuz you are my lady
 Please don't leave me, baby, baby

 [Chorus to end]
 I got to have you by my side
 I made a promise, girl
 I wanna do you right
 Oh yeahhhh
 Lady, lady
