Broken Promises (Rerecorded) - Willie Nelson

I made myself a promise the day you put me down

That I wouldn't see you if you came around

But here you are within my arms the way you used to be

And I broke the promise that I made to me

They told me you were at a dance and I prepared to go:

I made myself a promise that I'd only say hello

I knew you'd only hurt me but it's such sweet misery

So I broke the promise that I made to me

A broken promise always means someone will surely cry

And I know who that someone's bound to be

And tomorrow I'll be sorry that I told myself a lie

And broke the promise that I made to me

A broken promise always means someone will surely cry

And I know who that someone's bound to be

And tomorrow I'll be sorry that I told myself a lie

And broke the promise that I made to me
