aaron tippin – i promised you the world lyrics
(aaron tippin/bruce burch/vern dant)
i had dreams that were bigger than the montana sky
and we were gonna do great in great falls
i just knew we were this time
but when winter finally broke, so were we
you’ll never know how bad that hurt
’cause this ain’t what i meant
when i promised you the world
i lost the farm in kansas
along with a lot of pride
then i almost lost my life
down in that west virginia mine
and that motel room in memphis
was a long way from diamonds and pearls
and that sure ain’t what i meant
when i promised you the world
i swear your love is stronger
than any dream of mine i’ve ever drug you through
and i swear i wasn’t lyin’
they just never did come true
you’ve always bet on this old gambler
every time i gave the wheel a whirl
but this ain’t what i meant
when i promised you the world
now this shreveport sun is settin’
on another broken dream of mine
and i guess that mansion on the hill
is pretty hard to see tonight
but as long as there’s a breath of life in me
i’m gonna get it for you, girl
’cause this ain’t what i meant
when i promised you the world
i swear your love is stronger
than any dream of mine i’ve ever drug you through
and i swear i wasn’t lyin’
they just never did come true
you’ve always bet on this old gambler
every time i gave the wheel a whirl
but this ain’t what i meant
when i promised you the world
no, this sure ain’t what i meant
when i promised you the world
