Promises, Promises

Jon McLaughlin - Promising Promises

I wake up cold and sweaty

is it morning already?

I hate the sun for setting on yesterday

when I wrote my feelings

on the walls and ceilings

like drugs I'm dealing and you just walked away

the trees all sway and swing

the wind and I are both singing...

I was giving you everything I had to give

wasn't it enough?

all those promising promises were on your lips

but you wouldn't give them up

so let me just say for the record

you can spare me the lecture

cause ever since I met you I've been lonely

your smile don't hide you

I see the teeth that you lie through

do I need to remind you that I'm only...

hanging by a string

I close my eyes and spin...singing...

I was giving you everything I had to give

wasn't it enough?

all those promising promises were on your lips

but you wouldn't give them up

and I was giving you everything I had to give

wasn't it enough?

all those promising promises were on your lips

truely you wouldn't give them up

I was giving you everything I had to give

wasn't it enough?

all those promising promises were on your lips

but you wouldn't give them up
