Story Behind The Song

Prayers to the innocent crew & passengers, their family and loved ones of Malaysia Flight 370 and South Korea Sewol Ship. This duet is about a man out at sea/war, leaving behind his loved one that has no idea what has happened to him. She relies on their promise for hope...holding onto their promise...

Lyrics

Holding Onto Your Promise

Verse 1
M:It's been twenty lonely months, I've been sailing out at sea,
Imagining you climbing those hills waiting there for me,
Gazing down with no concern, that I will return,
To stay for eternity.
F: It's been a long long while, there's no news nor calls for me,
I'm praying that you'll appear miraculously,
Standing on this dry green grass, I can't relax,
Thinking when will you be back?

Chorus
M: I am here, staring at you from above,
F: And I am here, I'm waiting for you my love,
M: Can't you hear, I'll watch over you till the end of time,
T: Cos' I'm holding onto your promise together with mine.

F: Just one more time, let me hold and hear you breathe,
M: And one more time, we will be a family,
F: Can't you hear, my heart's crying with time,
T: Cos' I'm holding onto your promise together with mine.

Verse 2
M: There is never a moment, I want to ever say goodbye,
Flowing around the world with this lonesome heart of mine,
Hiding the lies from all the truth, you're lonely too,
Breaks my heart that I'm not with you.
F: When you left me behind, you said we'll grow old together,
Keeping this promise makes me stronger and stronger,
Knowing you're somewhere out there, I'll be fine,
Can you just give me a sign?

Chorus, Bridge

Bridge:
T: Even when you're so very far, there's no other love deeper than ours,
From the bottom of my heart, for as long as I exist,
I'll be holding on.....holding on....
Chorus
M: I am here, staring at you from above,
F: And I am here, I'm waiting for you my love,
M: Can't you hear, I'll watch over you till the end of time,
T: Cos' I'm holding onto your promise together with mine.
