couples gather on the street
|
no way they notice me
|
but i watch them walk together
|
and it reminds me
|
of nights when everyone was gone
|
and i ended up alone
|
nights that were unsafe to hope for anything
|
|
lately i have noticed that so much
|
is not what i imagined it¡¯d be.
|
when the harder times come calling on us
|
we¡¯ll know if we¡¯re gonna need
|
|
(chorus)
|
promises
|
don¡¯t promise me
|
say yes
|
say no or yes
|
but don¡¯t promise
|
|
for all the reasons not to try
|
i can¡¯t forget the times
|
i swore that if i finally knew
|
the answers to my prayers those nights
|
when it came time to decide i¡¯d just know
|
and i would be ready
|
|
lately i have noticed that so much
|
is not what i¡¯d imagined it¡¯d be
|
when the harder times come calling on us
|
we¡¯ll know if we¡¯re gonna need
|
|
