a promise away

 

grandma saw me wake up

but i promised not to tell

it storms in my umbrella

my guilt begins to swell

 

a promise away

but i’m too young to say no

 i’m too young to say no

but i’m old enough to know

 

we used to ride in your car

but you called it a machine

we said we’d never go far

now what would you call me?

 

a promise away

i’m too young to say no

i’m too young to say no

but i’m old enough to know

 

the difference between right

but i was havin’ the time …

but something didn’t seem right

my thoughts collide

and somethin’ don’t feel right

i’m not gonna lie

i could’ve left anytime

why didn’t i?

 

i swore i’d never go back

you ruined it for me

i just thought that you should know that

now it’s  time we got some sleep
