Badly Drawn Boy - Promies lyrics

I promise you will get old

I promised you everything

To protect you wherever you 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 everyday

Don't want you to walk alone

But how long can we carry on?

When all of these things have gone

Just promise you will remember

A promise should last forever

It's the last of the 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

Just promise you will remember

Promises last forever

Still left of the dying embers

The fire that burns so slowly

Sometimes you just have to walk away

Sometimes you just have to walk away

Wishing that today was yesterday

Yeah, sometimes you just have to walk away
