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.
