Broken Promises

I made myself a promise, the day you put me down,

That I wouldn't see you if you came around.

But here you are, within my arms, the way you used to be.

And I broke the promise that I made to me.

They told me you were at a dance and I prepared to go:

I made myself a promise that I'd only say hello.

I knew you'd only hurt me, but it's such sweet misery,

So I broke the promise that I made to me.

A broken promise always means someone will surely cry,

And I know who that someone's bound to be.

And tomorrow I'll be sorry that I told myself a lie,

And broke the promise that I made to me.

A broken promise always means someone will surely cry,

And I know who that someone's bound to be.

And tomorrow I'll be sorry that I told myself a lie,

And broke the promise that I made to me.
