One Promise Too Late

One Promise Too Late

as recorded by Reba McEntire

-----------------------------

I would have waited forever

if I'd known that you'd be here.

We could have shared our lives together

and held each other close all through the years.

But I met someone before you

and my heart just wouldn't wait,

So no matter how much I adore you

I've got to stand behind this promise that I made.

Where were you when I could have loved you?

Where were you when I gave my heart away?

All my life, I've been dreaming of you

You came along one promise too late

You came along one promise too late.

(INSTRUMENTAL)

I won't say that I'm sorry that I met you.

I can't have you but I never will forget you.

Where were you when I could have loved you?

Where were you when I gave my heart away?

All my life, darling, I've been dreaming of you.

You came along one promise too late.

You came along one promise too late.

(Repeat)

Notes: Reba sings in another key (I think E)
