River Whyless - Promise Rings Lyrics

River Whyless Lyrics

"Promise Rings"

Looking back again I feel like a child
See that I'm loving, see that I'm loving
A pair in stereo, in single file
Lazy, waking, wasting in the halls
Been thinking 'bout you now these days in the morning
What with this place all gone to Hell and burning

Promise rings
Promise rings, baby
Your promise rings untrue and undying
All your books
Pretty things you left
Your promise rings
Untrue and undying

You know I kept the note you slipped in my hand
Lunch on a Friday, drugs where the dogwoods stand
A couple couplets, what the night might hold
Home alone, your folks had gone to Ocracoke

Promise rings
Promise rings, baby
Your promise rings untrue and undying
All your books
And pretty things you left
Your promise rings
Untrue and undying

Kissing on me felt so sweet
Slows days in the summer, nights out on the beach
I was the one they warned you about
And you were a foreign taste in my mouth

Kissing on me felt so sweet
Slows days in the summer, nights out on the beach
I was the one they warned you about
And you were a foreign taste in my mouth

On your soapbox in your Sunday school
Broke my heart, but it ain't nothing new

Promise rings
Promise rings, baby
Your promise rings untrue and undying
All your books
And pretty things you left
Your promise rings
Untrue and undying

Untrue and undying
