One Promise Too Late

I would have waited forever

If I'd known that you'd be here

We could have shared our lives together

And held each other close all through the years

But I met someone before you

And my heart just couldn't wait

So no matter how much I adore you

I've got to stand behind the promise that I made

Where were you

When I could've loved you?

Where were you

When I gave my heart away?

All my life I've been dreaming of you

You came along one promise too late

You came along one promise too late

I won't say that I'm sorry that I met you

I can't have you but I never will forget you

Where were you

When I could've loved you?

Where were you

When I gave my heart away?

All my life I've been dreaming of you

You came along one promise too late

You came along one promise too late

Where were you

When I could've loved you?

Where were you

When I gave my heart away?

All my life, darlin', I've been dreaming of you

Oh, you came along one promise too late

You came along one promise too late
