McEntire, Reba - One Promise Too Late Lyrics






I would have waited forever
If I'd known that you'd be here
We could have shared our lives together
And held each other close all through the years
But I've met someone before you
And my heart just couldn't wait
So no matter how much I adore you
I've got to stand behind the promise that I made

Where were you
When I could have loved you
Where were you
When I gave my heart away
All my life I've been dreaming of you
You came along one promise too late
You came along one promise too late

I won't say that I'm sorry that I met you
I can't have you but I never will forget you

Where were you
When I could have loved you
Where were you
When I gave my heart away
All my life I've been dreaming of you
You came along one promise too late
You came along one promise too late

Where were you
When I could have loved you
Where were you
When I gave my heart away
All my life I've been dreaming of you
You came along one promise too late
You came along one promise too late

    Reba your the best! In the late 90's I chased rodeo's and gold buckles. Your were always on my radio to push my 99 ford western hauler 7.3 with a 4 horse slant hauling those Doc O Lena horses. Keep up the good work!!

  35. J.... D....

    Keep shaking your h÷ad woman i know something u dont

  36. S.... B....

    Written by Dave Loggins, Don Schlitz, and fiddle player for Buck Owens, Lisa Silver. 32 years ago this song would climb to #1.

  37. P.... L....

    So many memories! A girl i had a huge crush on back in highschool said this song described me and her.

  38. w.... h....

    Good song of truth. You are a lady that God knew could help me in life.

  39. V.... W....

    This song hits home for me! Mentally broken, shattered heart! I gave my all for once in life and my whole soul. I roam empty inside. Why did you have to abuse us, why did you control us, possessions were all we were to you. You had a good wife, a woman that gave you her all and you ruined her and all 5 of the kids. You had me even believing everything was my fault.

  40. P.... B....

    I only waited forever if i.knew tbaf youd be bers

  41. 7.... ....

    She didn't have to show her belly button to be sexy

  42. S.... C....

    That's pretty cut n dry.

  43. R.... L....

    Reba is such a nice looking women...

  44. H.... J....

    This one, Whoevers i New England and til you love me were always my favorite Reba tunes. Never seen the tv show but i heard great things.

  45. Z.... S....

    I play guitar 🎸 and sing 🎤

  46. Z.... S....

    I am a 90s baby I remember hearing this song reminds me of my childhood I have always loved country music like this because I am a southern country boy

  47. A.... D....

    This literally my story.

  48. A.... D....

    This literally my story.

  49. f.... ....

    I am a 'grey' alien being abductee as is my mother and certain family members. A few months ago, a Grey or Reptilian told me in my head, that HUMANS SHOULD NOT MARRY. I believe that person to be correct.

    f.... ....

    @fairybits The Institution Is Of The Lord...

    f.... ....

    @David White No I am right and many will agree with me. You bought into the system. Congrats,your officially their sheep.

    f.... ....

    @David White As I said,you bought into the system of lies from the Draconians. The real GOD never made that rule. The Draconians did that and you have believed that BS to the core of your heart. I hope you have a nice fluffy pillow to sit on while you worship them. Chuckles.

    f.... ....

    @fairybits grow up! So i understand your the MAN SO BE THERE OR lose what you feel for. A paper is paper but those vowels mean something to spirital woman and her family.

    f.... ....

    @yatta yatta Grow up eh? This coming from a low life that works for the DRACONIANS LOL. I am the MAN and do not forget it. Do not be jealous of my spiritual life and my connection to the greys who are in fact,RIGHT. Marriage needs to be wiped out of the bible. The BIBLE is bullshit and so is marriage. Hence most marriages end in divorce or they stay together but miserable. Grow up charlie brown and wake up to reality. You damn dumb sheeple.

  50. J.... M....

    REBA the best...just the best

  51. J.... M....

    Why do women turn gay

  60. R.... D....

    The next time some twit looks me in my eyes and tells me that Taylor Swift and Miranda Lambert are country queens, and say it with a straight face, I might just scratch their eyes out! Reba will always be my queen of country music!!

  61. J.... S....

    1 promise to late 👍

  62. A.... M....

    She is so perfect!2019

  63. S.... P....

    One of my All Time Favorite Reba songs.......

  64. E.... S....

    Love this song!!

  65. M.... Y....

    🎤🎼🎶🎵💥❤💖🧡💛🌎💿👢👢👑🏆🥇

  66. L.... M....

    The lyrics address the futility of one man / one woman.

    Group marriage solves the problem. Two woman / three husbands for example.

    Why would anybody pledge monogamy... knowing, at any time, their only partner can withhold affection for any reason or no reason!

  67. S.... C....

    I even the whole series of Reba show i love her

  68. K.... C....

    This song reminds me of another great song from the 70s with the same message. Where were you when I was falling in love by LOBO.

  69. v.... ....

    I love this song! I've lived through every song of hers I've been through it all! She is my ultimate favorite artist! 😭😍😍

  70. T.... D....

    I have finally after all these years found my soul mate. The one that makes me smile and happy and loves me unconditionally! Love you NS

    T.... D....

    Happy for you Tawana, love is an incredible feeling!

  71. N.... M....

    💖 Reba McEntire, is one of the queens of country music, Loretta Lynn, Dolly Parton, etc, are all in my book the true queens of country music ! ! !

  72. J.... W....

    Back before she became a crossover dingbat

  73. P.... C....

    Just what can you say. A classy lady

  74. K.... P....

    Love these song ..so true

  75. j.... k....

    love herin this song when im diving down the road

  76. D.... H....

    I love this song so much Reba mcentire you are the greatest country music singer ever

  77. R.... T....

    What a beautiful voice and an even more beautiful lady

  78. J.... P....

    I like her shirt beautiful dress I love her I'm your biggest country fan of Reba mcentire

    J.... P....

    I like her dress she is beautiful

  79. J.... C....

    Where were you bff

  80. A.... D....

    What a GREAT SONG!

  81. H.... S....

    A beautiful song by the queen

  82. J.... C....

    Oh really what about all the things I did to better my life and got nothing in return I will never be in love again

  83. C.... W....

    Loretta Lynn is the only Queen in country music point blank period

  84. T.... ....

    OMG, lol, a song about a woman who meets a man and realizes he's who she was always meant to be with but now it doesn't matter because – guess what?! – she's married! In what other genre of music would you encounter this kind of baseline reality and theme? Rock? R&B? Hip hop? Jazz? Even American standards? I mean, maybe folk, but even that'd be unusual. But, my point is, isn't this exactly why we listen to country music and love it so much?

  85. D.... S....

    I'll be Al.. Right

  86. D.... S....

    My heads in Vegas long story...

  87. D.... S....

    I guess I like Reba..

  88. A.... C....

    Powerful song I thank god for the man I have my husband

  89. B.... C....

    I would give anything just to have a single conversation with this woman ...

  90. w.... h....

    I have always been here waiting for God to put us together. Seems Gods plan has been put on hold for now.

  91. m.... c....

    very good singer from Oklahoma state.

  92. C.... W....

    Love this lady.. who I never met

  93. N.... A....

    I am a widow and remaining single is a promise..

  94. S.... O....

    wish i could find a soul mate. I'm a nice looking man everything I own is paid for I work hard and want to treat a lady to be my princess and wake up and have coffee with her and make sure her dreams are fulfilled and we live this life together but I'm lonely and raising two kids by myself and never have been able to find anyone

    S.... O....

    Shane Odom go on..I'm listening 😏

    S.... O....

    Sometimes you have to look outside the box my soulmate ended up being someone i never would have thought of and we've been married 23 years

    S.... O....

    I hear you. It is lonely being by yourself

    S.... O....

    Shane Odom, hoping God meets this need in your life, according to His will. Single parenthood can get tough, and certainly lonely, though I've learned over the years, after too many mistakes to count and thankfully God's grace in Jesus Christ to heal and grow me through them, that the "lonely" of being alone is not nearly as "lonely" as that of being with the wrong person. And, the solitude that comes in these times are well worth it, when we step back and allow God to teach and grow us in grace. Hang in there!! :-)

    S.... O....

    Hello Shane . I am the same kinda person . The things I have is played off . I lost my husband to cancer 14 yrs ago . I wish you the best . Evon

  95. l.... i....

    My ex came one promise to late and now i am with my love of my life

    l.... i....

    Do u still want her

  96. e.... b....

    She has a voice like no other!

  97. D.... J....

    This song hits home

  98. C.... S....

    It is the most TRAUMATIC emotional issue to confront!! It happened to me and IT SHATTERED ME !!!!

  99. C.... L....

    One of my favorite songs by Reba
