no promises

i ain't sayin' that i'll ever be Carl Lewis, baby
that's just not something i could do
but i do know that
i'd run trough hell in a minute flat
if i knew by doing that
i'd save you

and i ain't sayin' that Sinatra's voice will ever come from me
i'll never be that smooth
but, i'd be the first to say
i'd sing all night and dance all day
if i knew that it just may
entertain you

i ain't sayin' i'll ever be anything like Brad Pitt
i'm just not that lucky
i'd gladly act the scene
recite the lines from the silver screen
i'd do nearly anything
to love you

i ain't sayin' that Mother Theresa's soul is in my own
i'm just not that good
i'd do my best to turn your skies from grey
put some sunshine in your day
the stars at night would surely stay
above you
