I'm gonna saddle up that young chestnut stallion
Cause I know he can run like the wind
Across the desert, the pa** through the mountains
Yes that horse of mine might be my only friend
He never lies to me the way that you do dear
When I let him go he stands right by my side
And that's more than I can ever say about you
So I guess I'll just get on his back and ride
CHORUS
Take our picture in the frame down from the counter
Let out soul and your memories speak
As I ride through the night I will remember
The Promise that you made that you just could not keep
On a high ridge many miles from the city
Far away your bright lights they shine
And now the chestnut he's tired and he's so weary
But somehow I know he'll take me to the end of the line
REPEAT CHORUS
The Promise that you make that you just could not keep
