about

First song with lyrics I ever recorded. Was the second-most performed song when I played classrooms in high school.

lyrics

You make promises you know you can't keep.
You're always chasin' for the guys you know can't see.
You're breaking hearts, you never knew they exist,
You're hurting people close to you because of what you could miss.
You're tearing feelings into nothing, you can't even tell,
I'm breaking my own heart because I want you to know.

You make promises you know you can't keep.
It makes sense to you to lead 'em in and let 'em weep.
But baby, before long, you'll find someone to belong,
And it tears me up inside to hear of someone on your mind,
Because I just can't say outright that I love you more tonight,
I'll never know just what you want, but my best guess is all I've got.

I love you more tonight.
I'd just hate to see you cry, but make up your mind.

You break hearts because you know you can't fix
What's left of the mess it's all a mix.
So would you listen, I've got something to say,
I'll never really understand just why you'd want it this way.
You've got a lot on your mind, you can't even tell
I'm breaking my own heart because I want you to know.

I couldn't ask for someone better than you,
I know the ones you want can't ever really be true,
So please remember I'm the "willing-to-stay,"
You couldn't ask for someone else to wanna see you today.
I wanna try to ask you for your hand for a night,
And even if you're not sure, would you just give it a try?
