what sort of music do you like anyhow?

a song i wrote about a dear friend last year,

it's called promises.


Its at the end of next year

I’ll get to see your face

After 5 years away from each other

I’m waiting to feel your embrace



You made me a promise

That you’d always be here for me

I said I didn’t like your promises

Cause people always seem to break them



And if you broke my promise

it would be like you broke my heart

but I suppose your heart cannot be broken

if it wasn’t whole to start.



When I see you next year

What will you expect from me

Will it all just be fun and games

Or will you take it seriously

Will you remember what you promised me?



And if you broke my promise

it would be like you broke my heart

but I suppose your heart cannot be broken

if it wasn’t whole to start.



We’ve spoken a little of when we meet up

And to tell you the truth im a little scared

Things have already seemed to have changed

from when we spoke about our future days



I just want to give all of me to you

But you have already given yourself to someone else

Oh what’s a girl like me to do

When they’re hooked on someone like you

Would you be able to repeat

That promise you said you would keep 



And if you broke my promise

it would be like you broke my heart

but I suppose your heart cannot be broken if it wasn’t whole to start.
