Promises

Everything is always smiles, blushing and butterflies when you first meet 
I'm walking on sunshine picking you flowers, holding your hand in the sunset
We're walking on broken promises and there's nothing we can do but smile
You're more than meets the eye but we see what we want to see

Long walks turn into late night talks
There's nothing greater than seeing your name lighting up my phone 
Our hearts float through space reaching each other in words
But baby, words mean nothing without the follow through

Memories of you and I replay in my mind like an old turner classic 
You're never not alone and I am a busy bee 
You promised you'd be there, gave me your word
Your actions are the silent promise I refused to see

Everything is always smiles, blushing and butterflies when you first meet 
I'm walking on sunshine picking you flowers, holding your hand in the sunset
We're walking on broken promises and there's nothing we can do but smile
We're more than meets the eye but we see what we want to see

When we break down, and you come around 
My vision of you is no longer clouded 
The light is not forgiving and there is no you and I
Smiles fade, the blushing stops and the butterflies die


Goodbye to the sunset and goodbye to the clouds
Goodbye to the butterflies, I wish you could have hung around
Goodbye to the sunsets and 
Goodbye to the promises you made me
