Promises Made

You said goodbye

and broke this

heart inside of me

teardrops fell

like hours to eternity

the room was silent

as some forgotten melody

your words of steel

still echo in my memory

Promises made, promises broken

promises made, promises broken

I thought we had a chance

to really make it last

now the future looks to me

like some unwelcome guest

I'll be alright

as soon as I get over you

but this time it won't be

such an easy thing to do

Promises made are

promises broken

Caught up in the sorrow

Tangled in dreams

in the lonely hours

of silent screams

in the heart of the darkness

I break down

I feel the spirit of you

all around

Promises made are

promises broken

promises made are

promises broken
