The Script - Promises Lyrics


I don’t need a ring to know you love me
I don’t need a tattoo on your arm
I don’t need a name on a contract
Baby, if it’s written in your heart

You can save your tall tales and your short stories
They don’t do much, not, not for me
When it comes to love, babe
A little truth goes a long long way
So…

Don’t promise the world when I’m happy with this bedroom
Don’t promise me gold when silver will do
If you can’t say it back, well, it’s okay not to speak
So don’t promise me promises you can’t keep

No, baby, I don’t need a weather man
There to tell me when it rains
I don’t need to read between the lines
When it’s already written on your face
I want you to just feel it
No, don’t say
Just do it
Don’t explain it
When it comes to love, babe
A little truth goes a long, goes a long long way, yeah

Don’t promise the world when I’m happy with this bedroom
Don’t promise me gold when silver will do
If you can’t say it back, well, it’s okay not to speak
So don’t promise me promises you can’t keep

Times flies through the hour glass
But let’s just take it slow
Don’t try to excuse your past
‘Cause I don’t want to know
Don’t worry ’bout the future, babe
‘Cause that comes down the road
Just take a little walk with me
And let’s see where it goes, yeah
Let’s see where is goes

Don’t promise the world when I’m happy with this bedroom
Don’t promise me gold when silver will do
If you can’t say it back, well, it’s okay not to speak
So don’t promise me promises you can’t keep
You can’t keep, yeah
Oh if you can’t keep
If you can’t say it back, well, it’s okay not to speak
So don’t promise me promises you can’t keep
You can’t keep
You can’t keep
