"Promises I've Made" lyrics

"Promises I've Made"

Ever since you have gone, the days don't seem so bright
And I wish I could forget you but I can't
Ever since you have gone, I haven't felt quite right
And I promised I'd forget all that you meant

But now that I'm alone, I can't stop myself from thinking
I can't stop myself from breaking promises I've made to myself
Babe, you must believe

I have promised myself I wouldn't dream of you
But I find that awful hard sometimes to do (to do)
I have promised myself I wouldn't think of you
But I find that just as hard, you know it's true

Because when I'm alone, I can't stop myself from thinking
I can't stop myself from breaking promises I've made to myself
Babe, you must believe

I have promised myself I wouldn't think of you
But I find that awful hard sometimes to do (to do)
I have promised myself I wouldn't dream of you
But I find that just as hard, you know it's true

Because when I'm alone, I can't stop myself from thinking
I can't stop myself from breaking promises I've made to myself
Babe, you must believe
