I'm tryin' to believe in forever And I'm tryin' to believe in The little jewel box life we lead Babe I get so close sometimes All I really know is I believe That we've been makin' hard promises to keep
You want me to believe in forever Do you know how tight I'm holding Just to keep my grip on yesterday But I'm trying hard to see the pretty pictures That you paint for me You know how tight I'm holding To hard promises to keep
Promises are like little diamonds Promises are like little hearts you meant to give away I thought you'd want them back someday I kept them for you anyway But I know when I've been given Hard promises to keep
