Analysis of I Made A Special Promise



I made a special promise,
One for you to keep,
I hold it in my heart,
So very very deep,

I will never ever forget you,
Nor will I run away,
Because you see my darling,
I will marry you one day,

Hold your head up high,
Smile throughout the day,
Your sparkling eyes so pleasing,
In every single way,

I Made a special promise,
I will never ever forget you,
I am loving you forever,
It is right for me to do.
