Promise Me


Can you promise me tomorrow? Can you promise me today? Can you promise me the year? Or, only just yesterday? I love you, I really do. And you say you love me I hope that it’s true. Promise me it’s real. I want to believe you And my mind tells me to But my heart is slow It’s holding me back from you Because last time, Last time I thought I loved, She walked away Left me standing there. I never got a reason Just a cold glare A frosty smile And a heartless farewell I thought it was so great. I guess it wasn’t that Just promise me this isn’t fake. Promise me for once, it’s real. Promise you’ll never leave me alone. Leave me standing as you walk away Walking away from everything, You said was true love. Promise me you love me, For tomorrow and today. Not just yesterday, But every last day. I promise I’ll love you forever. Can you promise me the same? Can you promise not to leave, Without even a smile or wave.
