A Promise to Keep...

I know I had made a promise to you
I know I'll try to make it true
I know it would be hard enough
I know, as I wouldn't be near you...

I know not my where about...
A year down the line
A month seems far now
Another day just passes by...

A shiver ran down my spine
As I felt a senseless touch
My heart still sinking
At the thought... I'll still be very far...

I know it'll be tough enough
I know it wouldn't be so true
A promise made to you
If I couldn't be near you...
