Promises

Promises are made to be kept
To show our love and respect
Don't promise if you can not keep it
It hurts and does not pay.

We both made promises
To forever hold
That we would love forever
And never let go.

We would travel the world over
No matter the weather
That you would be strong
Protect me forever.

You said you loved me
And would never go
That we would stay together
Work it out.

I have kept my promises
I love you and only you
I gave you my all
I'm giving you my care.

Your breaking your promises
You want to be free
Because I cannot do one thing for you
Instead of holding on, your letting go.

I know now it will be the end
Your leaving on a whim
I will never see you again
Just a broken heart and promise.

Don't promise me a house
Don't promise me a ring
Don't promise to love me forever
Don't promise me your vows

I dont need any of it
If I don't have you
Your the center of my attention
Not promises that are not true.

Together we no longer will be
No dreams of you and I
Our love is broken
No longer to be.
