[rev. Sept. 17, 2016]

Hope you don't think that I'll keep that promise
And now it seems that lying is my business
I throw my hands up into the sky
Listen as the air begins to sigh

A promise can bind a king
With that promise reign everything

Hope you don't think that I'll love this success
Because it seems that lying is my business
Sometimes songs are written 'bout a wind
Listen as the wind begins to sing

A promise can enthrone a queen
So won't you tell me what that promise means

Turn around, walk untied, undone
Should have kept my eyes glued to the floor
If you can't face what is in the mirror
Never should have opened up ??? [2:49]

Hope you don't think that I've more to confess
It always seems that lying is my business
We never see the writing on the wall
It's the wall that separates us all

A promise can pound a king
Did that promise mean anything

Desiree here sometimes hacks a joke
I confuse her laugh for maybe more
If all we had was back inside your love
I never should have opened up the book

Hope you don't think that I want to end this
It's only happiness, lying is my business
It's only time that keeps us here today
Listen as the minutes tick away

I hope you don't think that I'll keep that promise
I hope you don't think that I'll keep that promise
I hope you don't think that I'll keep that promise
I hope you don't think that I'll...
