You promised to keep all your promises
and it's been a long time since you managed that
You promised to keep fighting for this
and it´s been a long since you took the words back

To hear you voice again was like a glimpse into the past
There's nothing here now that reminds me of you
and I think it´s alright now that we didn´t last
but I still don't like the thought of someone new

You talked about everything you had on your mind
Like you did when I loved you a lifetime ago
So familiar, so safe, yet so different this time
I´ve become a person that you no longer know

and I guess you stopped trying to spare my feelings
After all you let go, our lines no longer cross
I don´t want you anymore but it still stings
When you reach out like this so I remember the loss

There are are things now that I cannot say
It doesn't matter cause in the silence all of us hears
It was so strange to hear your voice today
To think I slept beside you for two years

I´m happy you called, that you haven´t forgotten
But the conversation still made me sad
I can hear in your voice that you're happy again
and she makes it less special the things that we had

You promised to keep all your promises
and it´s been a long time since you managed to
Maybe you shouldn´t promise her so you don´t go amiss
and I´ll try to be happy for you
What do you think?
