A Promise

This song was inspired by my close friend, Jeevan Fenn Varughese. I dedicate this song to you. We have parted now, but you remain in my heart. Thank you, for keeping your promise.


I requested you
And you said you would
I gave you my book
And you said you could
But you weren't there
To show you really care

I wanted something
That I thought you had
I asked for it
And you made me look bad
But you flew away
When I came that day

Wouldn't really mind
If you'd shown me your mind
But I trusted you so
I put my faith in your word
Though my heart fell away
My mind told me to stay
Because you promised me...

I waited hand and foot
For you to accomplish
I waiteed day and night
For you to come and finish
But you never came
Was never the same (Before)

Wouldn't really mind
If you'd shown me your mind
But I trusted you so
I put my faith in your word
Though my heart fell away
My mind told me to stay
Because you promised me...

Bridge:
Shattered and broken dreams
Coming apart at the seams
All, a measly nothing
Compared to a broken promise
What's a man's word
When it's full of nothing
Reassuring
But it falsifies hope

Now I don't really mind
'Cos you've shown me your mind
For I trusted you so
And my faith has been true
Though you took your own time
You've written on this heart of mine
Because you promised me...
