What You Promised
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I fell back to my old ways
Which you done for me
No, I'll never love like you, but I will say I do
For a time it was flawless
You are my comfort, my solace
But the life flickered out like flames always do
The lies, they haunt me 'til I burn them
But you've already known
The feelings that I had, oh I know
So forgive me, oh Lord, oh Lord
'Cause I won't give you what I promised
If you don't let me out
I never get out of being honest
The words just burn my mouth (my mouth, my mouth)
I remember the days
We were still young
Love couldn't break
No, I'll never love like you, but I will say I do
'Cause I won't give you what I promised
If you don't let me out
I never get out of being honest
The words just burn my mouth (my mouth)
