And the best thing was I believed you cause all I wanted was to believe I trade my faith for truth and hope it remains forever Sweetheart, I know it's wrong, but it feels so right So hard to say no to something you need Promises, promises Oh, promises, promises Promises, promises They are so hard to keep If we only knew God if we only knew Those promises You said that we could run away And just get out of here, Yeah just get out of here I see the door in front of us We could travel through, Yeah we could travel through Promises, promises Oh, promises, promises I trade anything for your promises Trade my faith for truth If we only knew, Yeah if we only knew Oh, those promises How come they're so hard to keep?
