I'm trying to believe in forever I'm trying to believe in the little jewel box life we lead Babe, I get so close sometimes But all I really know is I believe that we've been making 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? I'm trying hard to see the pretty pictures that you paint for me Do you know how tight I'm holding to hard promises to keep Promises are like little diamonds Promises are like little hearts We meant to give away I thought you'd want them back someday I've kept them for you anyway But I know when I've been given hard promises to keep Promises are like little diamonds Promises are like little hearts We meant to give away I thought you'd want them back someday I've kept them for you anyway But I know when I've been given hard promises to keep And I know that I've been given hard promises to keep
