Leddra Chapman - Promise You

Take a picture hold it close
Put it in a box, so you don't choke
Bury it underneath your feelings and stares

Make a heart shape with your hands
Have a little faith, they'll understand
Listen

'Cause you are the only reason I am here
Do I have to walk on knives for you to forgive me?

I'd love to promise you that it'll all end in music and the lights
Shine through a dark room, filtered rays of kisses, that's not life
It's not fair, but who the hell am I when you're not there?
I'd love to promise you

Build it all up in our heads
Those monsters underneath the bed
Bury the feet into the next love that appears

'Cause you are the only reason I am here
And I'll walk on the thousand knives for you to forgive me, believe me

I'd love to promise you that it'll all end in music and the lights
Shine through a dark room, filtered rays of kisses, that's not life
It's not fair, but who the hell am I when you're not there?
I'd love to promise you

That it'll end in moonlight
And our love will so through the sky
But I'm not naïve anymore (naïve anymore)
There is a very thin line between love and hate, don't you find?
It doesn't always end in music and dancing (and dancing)

I'd love to promise you that it'll all end in music and the lights
Shine through a dark room, filtered rays of kisses, that's not life
It's not fair, but who the hell am I when you're not there?
I'd love to promise you

I'd love to promise you that it'll all end in music and the lights
Shine through a dark room, filtered rays of kisses, that's not life
It's not fair, but who the hell am I when you're not there?
I'd love to promise you
