Lyrics Promises - Badly Drawn Boy

Promises

I promised you everything
To protect you wherever you’d go
I’ll give you this diamond ring
Just promise you will remember
A promise should last forever
Right up to the dying embers
Of a fire that burns so slow
It’s a different day every day
Don’t want you to walk alone
But how will we carry on When all of these things have gone
Just promise you will remember
A promise is last forever
Still after the last dying embers
Of a fire that burns so slowly
It’s a beautiful thing to do Sometimes you just have to walk away
Remember I do love you
Have courage in what you say
Promise you will remember
A promise is last forever
Still after the dying embers
Of a fire that burns so slowly
Sometimes you just have to walk away
Sometimes you just have to walk away
Wishing today was yesterday
Yes sometimes you just have to walk away
