Badly Drawn Boy - Promises lyrics

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
