lyrics
I gave you a bouquet of silk flowers
and swore we’d stay together until the last one dies.
I promised to call you to say goodnight;
I swore I’d never tell a lie.
Promises, promises are how we hide,
how we hide behind our doubts.
I promised I’d stop hurting myself,
just so I could promise you I’d take care of you.
I promised to always kiss you like it was our last
‘cause I knew it could be true.
CHORUS
I swore to make you breakfast every day you woke up next to me,
and I swore to shave every day of the week.
I promised to turn myself into the man you like;
I promised to bring your dreams to life.
CHORUS
and swore we’d stay together until the last one dies.
I promised to call you to say goodnight;
I swore I’d never tell a lie.
Promises, promises are how we hide,
how we hide behind our doubts.
I promised I’d stop hurting myself,
just so I could promise you I’d take care of you.
I promised to always kiss you like it was our last
‘cause I knew it could be true.
CHORUS
I swore to make you breakfast every day you woke up next to me,
and I swore to shave every day of the week.
I promised to turn myself into the man you like;
I promised to bring your dreams to life.
