I had dreams that were bigger than the Montana sky And we were gonna do great in Great Falls I just knew we were this time But when winter finally broke, so were we You'll never know how bad that hurt 'Cause this ain't what I meant When I promised you the world I lost the farm in Kansas Along with a lot of pride Then I almost lost my life Down in that West Virginia mine And that motel room in Memphis Was a long way from diamonds and pearls And that sure ain't what I meant When I promised you the world [Chorus] I swear your love is stronger Than any dream of mine I've ever drug you through And I swear I wasn't lyin' They just never did come true You've always bet on this old gambler Every time I gave the wheel a whirl But this ain't what I meant When I promised you the world Now this Shreveport sun is settin' On another broken dream of mine And I guess that mansion on the hill Is pretty hard to see tonight But as long as there's a breath of life in me I'm gonna get it for you, girl 'Cause this ain't what I meant When I promised you the world [Chorus] No, this sure ain't what I meant When I promised you the world
