Paper Promises(变速版)-那莫Nemo
作词:那莫Nemo

I wrote your name
On the back of a receipt
Said I’d call by Friday
Said I’d keep it sweet
You waited by the door
I stayed in my own rain
I smiled too easy
Then did it all again
I know what I said
I know what it cost
I make it sound easy
Then I leave you lost
And I hate that look
When it hits your face
Like you trusted a shadow
That stayed in place
Paper promises
I make them break
Paper promises
I don’t know how to stay
I said forever
Then I slipped away
Paper promises
Baby, I can’t keep what I say
(Paper promises)
(I can’t keep what I say)
Your mug by the sink
Still has that chipped blue line
Mine’s on the table
Full of cold, black time
I promised Monday
I promised “just one more”
But I let the whole week
Fall through the floor
You don’t yell much
That hurts me more
Just a quiet goodbye
And a closing door
I know what I said
I know what it cost
I make it sound easy
Then I leave you lost
And I hate that look
When it hits your face
Like you trusted a shadow
That stayed in place
Paper promises
I make them break
Paper promises
I don’t know how to stay
I said forever
Then I slipped away
Paper promises
Baby, I can’t keep what I say
(Paper promises)
(I can’t keep what I say)
If I speak again
Would you hear a lie?
Would you let me in
One more time?
I’m all good words
And bad timing
A hand on the knob
Then I’m gone by morning
Paper promises
I make them break
Paper promises
I don’t know how to stay
I said forever
Then I slipped away
Paper promises
Baby, I can’t keep what I say
Paper promises
(Paper promises)
I can’t keep what I say
(Paper promises)
