Lyrics to Promises

Days turn to years

But in my heart

Time has stood still



And like the devil

In my soul

It tests my will



Promises, promises that I made

Are the promises promises I betrayed

I just can seem to make

The commitment it takes

'Cause the guilt in my soul

Takes it toll

Every time I awake

Every time I awake



Time hasn't etched away the pictures of your face

Haunting me always

Memories I can't erase



And the promises promises that I made

Are the promises promises I betrayed

I just can't seem to make

The commitment it takes

And a piece of my heart breaks apart

Every time I awake

Every time I awake



And the night seems so dark and so endless

My conscious won't let me sleep

The guilt that haunts me is so relentless

Cause the promise I made is the one I can't keep



whoa promises promises that I made

are the promises promises I betrayed

and the promise promises that i made

are the promises promises I betrayed



I just can't seem to make

The commitment it takes

And the guilt in my soul

Takes it's toll

Every time I awake

Every time I awake

Every time I awake

[do you ever feel lonely]
