Would you be lying If you said I made you feel free? Would you be willing To do anything for me? Cause I can't say the same for you Not after what you put me through They say you shouldn't make promises that you can't keep Well it's that phrase that's been bothering me for weeks Why say anything when there's no guarantee That when I wake up there'll be anyone there but me I often wonder if you'll ever feel how I did In that summer, endless bummer, nothing more than a stupid kid It was late July when I felt like dying Driving home from Franklin, dreading the next weekend I should have seen this is how it would end. You wanted a second chance A second glance at what I'd been through Now I'm the one who feels bad For not being all there with you They say you shouldn't make promises that you can't keep Well it's that phrase that's been bothering me for weeks Why say anything when there's nothing that you can do And when you wake up I might not even be there with you I might not be with you She asked me not to hurt her the way that she hurt me But all that I could muster was a weak "no promises"
