Promises

Promises - Olivia Somerlyn Lyrics

I wish that I could hold a memory

Even one that never was to be

And it kills me that we came so close



I've been staring at a photograph

From when I thought

You'd always be my better half

But I guess that we'll just never know



Standing so far from you now

Would you ever come around and



Say what you used to say to me

When I could still believe it

Be like we used to be

When I thought that you could mean it

Because no one else

Can fill up the space you left

And there's only empty promises



I think about the plans we never made

I was sure that the hurt would finally fade

But I guess I never let you go



Could we repair it somehow?

Would you ever come around and



Say what you used to say to me

When I could still believe it

Be like we used to be

When I thought that you could mean it

Because no one else

Can fill up the space you left

And there's only empty promises



And the days are far away

Like pictures starting to fade

While we're living our own lives

And I wonder if you even care

And I still wish you were here

With me tonight



Standing so far from you now

Would you ever come around and



Be like we used to be

When I thought that you could mean it

Say what you used to say to me

When I could still believe it



Be like we used to be

When I thought that you could mean it

Because no one else

Can fill up the space you left

And there's only empty promises
