We walked into each other’s life
With a promise to bring a smile
With your hand still holding mine
Waking up happily with dreams fine
We resolved to stay forever this way
No sour feelings, no rude words to say.
Now with my lonely thoughts, I sit alone
In the dark depressive nights, I only moan
I am torn between holding on to our promise yesterday
And accepting the reality of not being fulfilled today
You left it all in a pile for me
To sift through that and set me free
We promised each other a better tomorrow
But you filled my heart with only sorrow
A promise, how sweet, if it can be kept!
But the unkept one swept us away
Now that we are too apart
Your unkept promise has ripped my heart
With your hand still holding mine
Waking up happily with dreams fine
We resolved to stay forever this way
No sour feelings, no rude words to say.
Now with my lonely thoughts, I sit alone
In the dark depressive nights, I only moan
I am torn between holding on to our promise yesterday
And accepting the reality of not being fulfilled today
You left it all in a pile for me
To sift through that and set me free
We promised each other a better tomorrow
But you filled my heart with only sorrow
A promise, how sweet, if it can be kept!
But the unkept one swept us away
Now that we are too apart
Your unkept promise has ripped my heart
Even now I see your silhouette in my dream
The unkept promise makes me wake up with a scream
Why did you say it’s the truth when it was a lie?
Why did you say hello, only to say goodbye?
The unkept promise makes me wake up with a scream
Why did you say it’s the truth when it was a lie?
Why did you say hello, only to say goodbye?
