If for the sake of the song, lay it on the line
It's gonna take more than promises this time
If for the light in a smile, keep on burning up
See just how far you can take it with dumb luck
Promises
Promises
Don't let them take you down, there in your heart of hearts
There is a hope that's been growing since the start
So don't you throw it away for things you left unsaid
You can't turn 28 if you're already dead
Promises
Promises
Does it really matter
Is it worth feeling so battered, and the
Promises you shattered
Gonna leave you all in tatters, I said
Does it really matter
Is it worth feeling so battered, and the
Promises you shattered
Gonna leave you all in tatters
