the promise

Now you're gone, I'm back on the shore

Lookin' out for loves that I lost

I pray for waves, who all came back before

To bring you back once more

You told me to wait, I've done it all night long (ah)

But now I can't take the weight of being alone (ooh), oh-oh

And you whispered "forever"

The day before you left

I'm a ghost in this universe

'Cause I'm locked into a promise

I let the waves, who all came back before

Swallow me whole once more

You told me to wait, I've done it all night long (oh)

But now I can't take the weight of being alone (ooh), oh-oh (ah)

And you whispered "forever"

The day before you left
