Take me back to the beginning When love was patient, love was kind, Back to the place we first started When we weren't so proud to change our minds. And take me back when love was unselfish When touch was passionate and sweet When we weren't just getting what we wanted But we gave ourselves so willingly And I love you. I promise I always will. I love you. I promise I always will. Take me back to the beginning When I would look you in the eye. There was no such thing as a cold shoulder And we lived within your hands and mine. And I love you. I promise I always will. I love you. I promise I always will. And I chose you. Forever I choose you still. ‘Cause I love you, and I promise I always will. Before we burn down all our bridges Let's look on what we've built. With patience asking for forgiveness* And watch our love grow deeper still ‘Cause I love you, and I promise I always will. I love you. I promise I always will. And I chose you. Forever I choose you still. ‘Cause I love you, and I promise I always will. * Not sure if this line is accurate.
