The Promise Lyrics

Carry my coffin in the rain
Leave the reeds in the dirt with my name
Everything's unwinding and I can't wind it back

There'll be no christmas anymore
No tiny footsteps at our door
I hope their memories don't fade
Just like the promise we made

Let the rings fall from our fingers
As if they were never worn
The presence of love still lingers in every gift on the floor
I know you were a friend to me
But I lose myself in company

There'll be no christmas anymore
No tiny footsteps at our door
I hope their memories don't fade
Just like the promise we made

But lord knows that I was wrong
Cause the guilt follows me around
One day you'll be glad I'm gone
Cause I'm over now

There'll be no christmas anymore
No tiny footsteps at our door
And nothing left of us remains
Just like the promise we made
