Promise

dim-lit restaurant, heavy curtains

in the corner couple reaching

they’re twins sharing a ghost

twins sharing a ghost

candles light

the bottoms of their eyes

I was innocent you know

I was innocent you know

I made a promise when i was younger

I would give my heart as freely

as I could

it's a waste now with no lover

stupid promises

don’t do me any good

I’m looking for an exit

she's not seeing any way

to draw me in

This place is full of happy lovers

sharing drinks and fingers touching skin

I'll pretend it doesn’t bother me

that I don’t feel anything

I could fake it for a little while

but soon it’s better left out in the rain

I used to pride myself in how

I could read someone and tell they're letting on

across the table sitting like a closed book

far away in a long forgotten room

I made a promise, when i was younger

I would give my heart as freely

as I could

it's a waste now, with no lover

stupid promises

don’t do me any good
