i promise



what is going on your mind?
light shivers coming over your spine
all the memories drained in your memory line
sit down i’ll pour you a glass of wine

tell me every thing that bothers
your speech will linger on my brain
cause every single word you’re say
is like a cut that might remain

i swear it’s never gone away
i’ll care for you as same each day
nothing will ever made my mind
to change the truth you share

all metaphors in written songs
is just a shade on writers souls
as much as your confession be
forever gone away with me
