A Promise in the Dark Listen… Can't count on you most of all when I really need it It's the simple things that you do, really hurt my feelings The more I try, the more I'm starting to see it This can't work anymore, than you believe it Goodbye may come as a shock Even though I love you a lot I've given every breath I've got Sometimes you gotta break down and breathe And how many times I gave my heart To how many times we fell apart And it equals A promise in the dark So don't promise me And how many times I gave you me Divided by so many memories And it equals A promise in the dark So don't promise me Listen… I just don't know what the problem is, what the deal is Was I there too much, did I move too fast, I couldn't see it? All these promises are probably how you deal with it I'm tired of hearing you say your innocent Don't think I forgot Because I really didn't care if you're lying a lot I've given every breath I've got Sometimes you gotta break down and breathe And how many times I gave my heart To how many times we fell apart And it equals A promise in the dark So don't promise me And how many times I gave you me Divided by so many memories And it equals A promise in the dark So don't promise me We all make mistakes Sometimes we do desperate things What does it prove? NOTHING And you never do nothing wrong Then what took you so long, took you so long Cuz I keep, keep hanging on, keep, keep hanging on And how many times I gave my heart To how many times we fell apart And it equals A promise in the dark So don't promise me And how many times I gave you me Divided by so many memories And it equals A promise in the dark So don't promise me So don't promise me So don't promise me
