Promise Me

I think a part of me is hurting
I can't look you in the eye
You read me better than a poem
Guessing every single rhyme
Will you open up this letter
With your heart upon your sleeve?
Knowing you are what is missing
I am the only tragedy

Just the thought of me letting you go
Seems so hard when you're all that I know
If you need to walk away, then let me
Let me go, oh

Will you promise me, promise me, love?
Even if time, time takes its part
Will you promise me, promise me, love? Ooh
I tried so hard to be the one
Wasn't ready for you all along
So will you promise me, promise me, love? Ooh

You are too special to be broken
And I can't be the reason why
I am too lost to be your only
And I can't lay with you and lie

Just the thought of me letting you go
Seems so hard when you're all that I know
If you need to walk away, then let me
Let me go, oh

Will you promise me, promise me, love?
Even if time, time takes its part
Will you promise me, promise me, love? Oh
I tried so hard to be the one
Wasn't ready for you all along
So will you promise me, promise me, love? Ooh

Just the thought of me letting you go
Seems so hard when you're all that I know
If you need to walk away, then let me
Let me go, oh

Will you promise me, promise me (promise me), love? (Ooh)
Even if time, time takes its part (oh, woah)
Will you promise me, promise me, love? Oh
I tried so hard to be the one
Wasn't ready for you all along
So will you promise me (promise me), promise me, love? (Oh)

Will you promise me, promise me, love? Oh
