a promise to me Lyrics

Please get drunk and think of me

I hear your name like scattering leaves.

Outside my bedroom window

I can't see them but they sound so pretty.

Fill my lungs with nicotine

Cause I can't keep a promise to me.

Fill my days, my afternoons

With writing, thinking, dreaming of you.

Let's stay up all night to find

How the dark forms under each other's eyes

Then let's sleep the whole next day

To learn how bodies twist and bend when not awake

I was thinking of you as the sky went dark

If I can't forget about the past I'll just act like it never happened

Let's be dancing under the city lights

In the same planet, country, state, city, room until we drift apart

Then I'll be thinking of you for the whole drive home

150 miles north still see you smile and hear you laughing

Ethereal warmth, your glow still reaches (reaches, reaches, reaches)
