I can't promise I'll be there,
I can't say that I'll always care.
I can't be sure I'll never lie,
I can't pledge love until I die.
I can't promise to give hope,
I can't assure you that I'll cope.
I can't tell you I'll provide,
I can't always give you a place to hide.
I can't say I'll always be sweet,
I can't tell you there'll never be heat.
I can't give you everything,
I can't promise you anything.
I can't say you're the one,
I can't say we'll never be done.
I can't assure you of my love,
I can't promise, anything, when push comes to shove.
I just can't assure you of a single thing,
I'm sorry, I just don't know what God will bring.
I hope that his plans bring us two together,
But, God is the one who decides my forever.
I pray that my future invloves me with you,
I'll have to wait for God to prove true.
I rely on these words to get me through.
"You are you, and I am I,
You do your thing and I do mine.
And, if in the end, God puts us together,
It is beautiful."
For, I know not the plans he has for me,
And I hope that His plans put me with thee.
But until I find out what's in store for me,
I'll be content to spend now with thee.
