I Broke a Promise

She’s all alone at 2am, counting that clock on the wall
I made you a promise girl, now it means nothing at all
I lie baby, I lie so good, had you lying to yourself
Now you’re picking up the pieces for all the wrong reasons
Screaming my name for help
Now you’re crying on my shoulder saying «baby stay sober»
As I watched every tear that fell
The way that I’ve been drinking has kind of got me thinking
I might be the devil himself
I can feel her heart breaking; I know she’s going to say
Love was all she wanted
But now she’s slipping away, cause baby I broke a promise
She threw away the ring I bought her and she read the letter I wrote
She asked where we went wrong, and where’s the man she used to know
Now she’s standing in the drive reading in between the lines
Damn, I got a heart of stone
And I’m dying down inside trying to swallow my pride
I can’t let the bottle go
Now you’re crying on my shoulder saying «baby stay sober»
As I watched every tear that fell
The way that I’ve been drinking has kind of got me thinking
I might be the devil himself
I can feel her heart breaking; I know she’s going to say
Love was all she wanted
But now she’s slipping away, cause baby I broke a promise
It’s going to hurt me more than you
To hear these words and say we’re through
Now she’s crying on my shoulder as tell her that it’s over
I watched every tear that fell
The way that I’ve been drinking has kind of got me thinking
I might be the devil himself
I can feel her heart breaking; I know she’s going to say
Love was all she wanted
But now I’m walking away, cause baby I broke a promise
Now I’m walking away, cause baby I broke a promise
