Aaron Tippin - I Promised You The World Lyrics
(aaron tippin/bruce burch/vern dant)I had dreams that were bigger than the montana skyAnd we were gonna do great in great fallsI just knew we were this timeBut when winter finally broke, so were weYoull never know how bad that hurtcause this aint what I meantWhen I promised you the worldI lost the farm in kansasAlong with a lot of prideThen I almost lost my lifeDown in that west virginia mineAnd that motel room in memphisWas a long way from diamonds and pearlsAnd that sure aint what I meantWhen I promised you the worldI swear your love is strongerThan any dream of mine Ive ever drug you throughAnd I swear I wasnt lyinThey just never did come trueYouve always bet on this old gamblerEvery time I gave the wheel a whirlBut this aint what I meantWhen I promised you the worldNow this shreveport sun is settinOn another broken dream of mineAnd I guess that mansion on the hillIs pretty hard to see tonightBut as long as theres a breath of life in meIm gonna get it for you, girlcause this aint what I meantWhen I promised you the worldI swear your love is strongerThan any dream of mine Ive ever drug you throughAnd I swear I wasnt lyinThey just never did come trueYouve always bet on this old gamblerEvery time I gave the wheel a whirlBut this aint what I meantWhen I promised you the worldNo, this sure aint what I meantWhen I promised you the world
