Tracy Chapman - The Promise (Cover with Lyrics)

I've always loved singing this song :)
Tracy Chapman is a great example of expressing Love and Faith in such an emotional, heartfelt and honest way, as you can hear in her beautiful songs..
I found this recording on my computer, it's a bit different to the other version of this song that I've uploaded before, so I thought to share both of them.
Let me know which one you like more ;)

I remember that I didn't "plan" to sing or to play it the way you can hear it now in this version (I KNOW - the guitar could and should have been played much better...), I was just in my beginnings of learning and practising this wonderful song - but well, this is what came out ...

=)

Here are the Lyrics:

"The Promise" - Tracy Chapman

If you wait for me then I'll come for you
Although I've traveled far
I always hold a place for you in my heart

If you think of me If you miss me once in awhile
Then I'll return to you
I'll return and fill that space in your heart

Remembering
Your touch
Your kiss
Your warm embrace
I'll find my way back to you
If you'll be waiting

If you dream of me like I dream of you
In a place that's warm and dark
In a place where I can feel the beating of your heart

Remembering
Your touch
Your kiss
Your warm embrace
I'll find my way back to you
If you'll be waiting

Oh I've longed for you and I have desired
To see your face your smile
To be with you wherever you are

Remembering
Your touch
Your kiss
Your warm embrace
I'll find my way back to you
Please say you'll be waiting

Together again
It would feel so good to be
In your arms
Where all my journeys end
If you can make a promise If it's one that you can keep, I vow to come for you
If you wait for me and say you'll hold

A place for me in your heart...
