lyrics

Promises
Lyrics by Soffía, Pétur Ben

Love..

Telling stories on my Tanglewood
how I would glorify the pain
Empty promises
again and again

Singing songs on my Guild
grieving life I left behind
My kind'a love are my guitars
hustle and grind

Promises, promises
people like me
we fall on our faces
we just wanna be
loved
when we could be dancing and doing
whatever we want
love
we could be friends

I wear my Gibson
give me and idea
I'll turn it to gold
Stories untold
true love forever on hold

Soon I will dance
with a Martin in my hands
That voice when it whispers
future plans
Gives me all kind of..

promises, promises
people like me
we fall on our faces
we just wanna be
loved
when we could be dancing and doing
whatever we want
I'm done kissing boys
I'm done chasing men
Love
I won't do it again
Love
We could be dancing

Keep moving on
Keep taking breaks
Keep having fun
Making mistakes
And keep having doubts
One foot out the door
All of my lovers
Dead on the floor
Keep making

promises, promises
no-one can keep
Even the best ones
they just wanna be
loved
When we could be
dancing and doing whatever we want
Love
I won't do it again
Love
We could be dancing
Love
please take me home
take me home
take me home
take me home..
