Madonna - Promise To Try lyrics

Little girl don`t you forget her face

Laughing away your tears

When she was the one who felt all the pain

Little girl never forget her eyes

Keep them alive inside

I promise to try -- it`s not the same

Keep your head held high -- ride like the wind

Never look behind, life isn`t fair

That`s what you said, so I try not to care

Little girl don`t run away so fast

I think you forgot to kiss -- kiss her goodbye

Will she see me cry when I stumble and fall

Does she hear my voice in the night when I call

Wipe away all your tears, it`s gonna be all right

I fought to be so strong, I guess you knew

I was afraid you`d go away, too

Little girl you`ve got to forget the past

And learn to forgive me

I promise to try -- but it feels like a lie

Don`t let memory play games with your mind

She`s a faded smile frozen in time

I`m still hanging on -- but I`m doing it wrong

Can`t kiss her goodbye -- but I promise to try
