Artist: Butch Walker Album: Letters (2004) Title: Promise
Lyrics PromiseWell i fumbled for a pencil
And my i'm so sorry pad
And i wrote until i sprained my stupid brain
And i know that there's a reason
Why i made this up so fast
I thought i'd never get a chance to say
What's on my mind
I'm never kind
When my vocabulary's secondary
To a bottle of wine
But i promise i can love you
Just like a man
And i promise i can hold you
Like nobody can
I never knew the difference
Between bullshit and sincere
As long as it sounded good while coming out
And i can't blame it on my father
He gave me my first beer
And he held my head back as i puked it out
What was i saying
There i go playing
A game i know so well
I'm talking about myself
When it should be you
But i promise i can love you
Just like a man
And i promise i can hold you
Like nobody can |
