[Verse 1]
Why should I worry
What happens to me in this life
There are a million people girl
Trying to waste my time
I'm in no hurry
I only want to hang on to
I thought that you said the love was mine
I never meant to hurt you
[Pre-Chorus]
Darling what's your hurry
Now you'll never have to worry
I'll be there for you
Darling don't close your door
[Chorus]
You promised me, you'd never leave
You promised me
You promised me, you'd always stay
[Verse 2]
I hold a vision
A better world for you and me
I tried to reach the part of you
And you refuse to see
I'm in confusion
I try to keep our love alive
And when the flame burns out so soon
We never will survive
Why should I worry
What happens to me in this life
There are a million people girl
Trying to waste my time
I'm in no hurry
I only want to hang on to
I thought that you said the love was mine
I never meant to hurt you
[Pre-Chorus]
Darling what's your hurry
Now you'll never have to worry
I'll be there for you
Darling don't close your door
[Chorus]
You promised me, you'd never leave
You promised me
You promised me, you'd always stay
[Verse 2]
I hold a vision
A better world for you and me
I tried to reach the part of you
And you refuse to see
I'm in confusion
I try to keep our love alive
And when the flame burns out so soon
We never will survive
