[Original Broadway Cast of Violet, Emerson Steele, Colin Donnell, Joshua Henry, Sutton Foster - Promise Me, Violet lyrics]
When it's convenient for you
Sit down
Some night you're drunk and you're lonely
Got nothing better to do
I'll be sittin' home
Waitin' to hear from you
I got your number, I'll call you
I got your number, I'll call you
Expect to hear from me soon –
Expect to hear from me –
You never know, with the Army –
Might be your neighbor by June
Good
(sung) write me any time –
I'll wait to hear from you
You weren't so bad, for a soldier
You weren't the best or the worst
But when you started to cry, boy
I tell you, that was a first
Violet! You doing all right in there?
I'm fine! You worried or something?
I'm fine! It's all the candy and the
Soda, what'd you expect? I mean
Isn't this your stop? Shouldn't you
Be getting ready to go?
You got my number so – what?
You got my number so –
I got your number so – what?
I got your number so – what?
You got my number so call me –
Expect to hear from me soon –
Some night you're drunk and you're lonely –
Under the spell of the moon –
I'll be sittin' home
Knittin' somethin' fittin'
Just waitin' to hear from you
Come on, Monty
Promise me, Violet promise you'll do this
Once your healing's through monty?
Come to this station any time Sunday
I'll be here for you
I'll be waiting, by the roadside
Any time, I'll make do
I've been waiting, for a lifetime
To get your sweet kiss so Violet, promise
'Cause, I'll be waiting for you
Promise me, Violet why won't you face me?
All I want is you you're not some beauty
That don't concern me i'll be here for you
I'll be waiting by the roadside
Make my lonesome dream true
You're so sweet i've been waiting
Should I speak up or let her go
Am I just caught up in a dream
I've been waiting, for a lifetime
For someone simply to look and see me
The way that I see you promise me, Violet
Why won't you promise
You got yourself a good joke now
You wanna set up the punchline
That's all I am, I know
I got your number, my darling
You look too good to be true
Slow down, you know I'm the best thing
Has ever happened to you
I'm coming here Sunday see you then
All right? And you get off that bus!
Leave the girl in peace!
What the hell is wrong with you?
You expect her to get to Tulsa
And back in two days?
I'll be waiting, by the roadside
Left my troubles all behind me
Back there when I climbed on board
Jordan River's where you'll find me
It's wide, but not too wide to ford
And I'll call your name
And as I'm goin' along
And as I'm goin' along
And as I'm goin' along
And as I'm goin' along i know you're with me
