Yesterday`s promise got you everything I had
You took all the best of me and now you call me bad
You made me careless with the pretty things you`d say
Now yesterday`s promise makes me crying today
Yesterday`s promise made the fire within me burn
Today there`s only bitter ashes everywhere I turn
Tomorrow may be better when the hurt has gone away
But yesterday`s promise makes me crying today
[ steel ]
Yesterday`s promise made just one thing in mind
But to a girl it sounds like love when it`s love she hopes to find
Tomorrow I may find it when the hurt has gone away
But yesterday`s promise makes me crying today
