Promise What You Will
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Lately she don't care
For a warmer breeze
Or shade around the base
Of the maple trees
Spring was on the mountain
We climbed upon
Stopped to see how high
And how far we'd gone
I said, 'love is waiting
And better days'
She smiled and placed a kiss
On my waiting face
Promise what you will
Something good for me
Time will take it all
And it will, you'll see
