[Verse 1]
I know that I ghosted you
Now I hit you up again
Baby I can hear your voice
It never left my head
Seems like a million years
The time is erased
I want to stay right here
[Chorus]
I don’t want to make promises promises
That I’ll never keep
I don’t want to make promises promises
I don’t really mean
[Chorus]
I don’t want to make promises promises
That I’ll never keep
I don’t want to make promises promises
I don’t really mean
[Verse 2]
Told you all my secrets oh
Undercover in the night
Suddenly I’m too exposed
Arrested by the light
[Pre-Chorus]
All the broken parts
The only thing I saw
You said keep holding on
I wish I could but
[Chorus]
I don’t want to make promises promises
That I’ll never keep
I don’t want to make promises promises
I don’t really mean
[Chorus]
I don’t want to make promises promises
That I’ll never keep
I don’t want to make promises promises
I don’t really mean
[Bridge]
My face in your hands
Your eyes locked on mine
Feels like it’s the end of the world
You tell me without words it’s alright
[Chorus]
I don’t want to make promises promises
I don’t want to make promises promises
I don’t want to make promises promises
That I’ll never keep
I don’t want to make promises promises
I don’t really mean
[Outro]
I don’t want to make promises promises
That I’ll never keep
I don’t want to make promises promises
I don’t really mean
