You promised...

You promised you would "call later"
the phone's not away from me
A day, a week, a fortnight,
Now a month - how long will it be ..

I promised I would be there
And you said you would come to me
A day, a week, a fortnight,
Now a month - how long will it be...

You promised we were sisters
in glory ,grief or glee- it'd be you and me
A day, a week, a fortnight,
Now a month - how long will it be....

I promised I would stay strong - never crumble
And if I did , you'd be right there beside me
A day, a week, a fortnight,
Now a month - how long will it be....

Go on, ask me like when you were naughty
"are you cross with me ?"
YES I AM , if you care to listen...
But hear this too from me -
A day, a week, a fortnight, now a month-
We will love you forever and ever...however long it be...
