Stavesacre Yes
couples gather on the street
no way they notice me
but i watch them walk together
and it reminds me
of nights when everyone was gone
and i ended up alone
nights that were unsafe to hope for anything
lately i have noticed that so much
is not what i imagined it'd be.
when the harder times come calling on us
we'll know if we're gonna need
(chorus)
promises
don't promise me
say yes
say no or yes
but don't promise
for all the reasons not to try
i can't forget the times
i swore that if i finally knew
the answers to my prayers those nights
when it came time to decide i'd just know
and i would be ready
lately i have noticed that so much
is not what i'd imagined it'd be
when the harder times come calling on us
we'll know if we're gonna need
