Edit By: 216.73.216.189

(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
Youll never know how bad that hurt
cause this aint 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 aint what I meant
When I promised you the world

I swear your love is stronger
Than any dream of mine Ive ever drug you through
And I swear I wasnt lyin
They just never did come true
Youve always bet on this old gambler
Every time I gave the wheel a whirl
But this aint 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 theres a breath of life in me
Im gonna get it for you, girl
cause this aint what I meant
When I promised you the world

No, this sure aint what I meant
When I promised you the world
