Go On, Make Promises

Dish water sunrise, your shirts in a pile
Would it kill you to pull your weight once in a while?
Oh, but it never fails, just when I say I'm done
You come sweeping in with your long-stemmed bloom
Tell me once again I'm the only one
And we'll run away together real soon

And I know what I'm doing, I'm ready to go
Got my full-price ticket to your fantasy show
Oh, oh, oh...

So go on, make promises you can't keep, you can't keep
Oh, go on, make promises you can't keep, you can't keep

The sun in the morning shows the scars on my back
I see a future in spite of the past
From the crowds of the city to the ends of the pier
I still hear those words of yours ring in my ear

And if you think I'm quitting, you're shit out of luck
We built it, we burnt it, I'm not giving up
Oh, oh, oh...

So go on, make promises you can't keep, you can't keep
Go on, make promises you can't keep, you can't keep

The deafening silence of all our mistakes
These bruised but unbroken vows
So many words that should make us afraid
But we still say out loud

Oh, oh, oh...

So go on, make promises you can't keep, you can't keep
(Oh, oh, oh...)
Go on, make promises you can't keep, you can't keep
(Oh, oh, oh...)

Sun in the morning shows the scars on my back, I see a future in spite of the past
(So go on, make promises you can't keep, you can't keep)
Got my full-price ticket to your fantasy show
(So go on, make promises you can't keep, you can't keep)

Oh, go on, make promises you can't keep, you can't keep
(Oh, oh, oh...)
Yeah, go on, make promises you can't keep, you can't keep
(Oh, oh, oh...)

Go on, make promises
(Go on, go on, make promises)
Go on, make promises
