a promise

It’s over, but I’m still trying

Holding on to everything we had

And I’m sorry, but I’m still fighting

Fighting for that fraction of a chance

And I see you

With everything you wanted

A smile so big

And eyes so bright they put the sun to shame

With every time I see you

The knife drives deeper

Breaking tides and making lies

And I’m the one to blame.

Yeah things could never be the same.

They could never be the same

Yet here I am holding on to shadows

Of memories, the dreams that we once shared

And still, a promise is a promise.

And I’m still with you, a thousand miles away

 But my love is still the same.
