|
Promises made and promises broken |
|
Measures of our demise |
|
Secrets of souls that rarely get spoken |
|
Pleasure's a thin disguise |
|
Dozens of ways and dozens of reasons |
|
Shielding our hearts from pain |
|
Riddles of romance |
|
That distance may yet explain |
|
Certain of nothing |
|
So fearful of love |
|
Nobody seems to show you enough |
|
Over and over the scenes are replayed |
|
And once again those promises made |
|
Feeling forsaken, broken in two |
|
How did this ever happen to you |
|
Taken for granted, bruised and betrayed |
|
Lonely survivors these promises made |
|
Dozens of ways and dozens of reasons |
|
Shielding our hearts from pain |
|
Riddles of romance |
|
That distance may yet explain |
|
Certain of nothing |
|
You're so damn fearful of love |
|
Nobody seems to show you enough |
|
Over and over the scenes are replayed |
|
And once again those promises made |
|
Those promises made |
