Oh this evening, we are three,
But in the morning there will be two, And i will sit you down in
privacy and speak with you
Outside the window, it's late spring,
I could just sit here where I can breathe And after all these years,
I've choked on my fears, I don't wanna leave.
I'll promise you this
And as you iron my only shirt,
And I cook you this one last meal,
There's a lump in my throat as I hang up my heart, and that's how i
feel.
Because tomorrow in that box,
Oh we both know what they'll see,
In my Primark shirt, with my clumsy words they're gonna bury me
And I'll promise you this
And late that night, in the flickering late, you fell asleep on me,
I'd made my bed, I'd made my plea oh but I hadn't made my peace with
you And as I watched you, oh there were tears running down my face,
You looked so young, and there's no way we can run.
Oh but this old romance, has history,
Of passion, pain and loyalty,
When all I got is your honesty
Now as they're leading me away
Oh but my selfish heart, Will sink yours too, These prison sheets, Are
meant for two, Cos if it haunts you now, you know it's true And if you
promise me oh I'll promise you that we'll stay -
