Promises

         PROMISES

You promised me everything
A bracelet and a diamond ring
A trip to Ireland with you
Moonbeams and castles too
Chasing these dreams, you know
like a leprechaun does a rainbow

CHORUS
Your green eyes are haunting me
They are all that I can ever see
I'm lucky to make it through the day
Without thoughts of you getting in my way

The color of your eyes, shamrock green
The prettiest eyes I've ever seen
So easy to lose myself in them
You come and go on a whim
Not caring who you hurt or shun
Just doing your best to have your fun

CHORUS
Your green eyes are haunting me
They are all that I can ever see
I'm lucky to make it through the day
Without thoughts of you getting in my way

To some you may just be paddy
you promised to be my sugar daddy
You're always about pleasing yourself
Use us up and put us on your shelf
Never committing to anything you say
Leaving us wondering, were you really here today

CHORUS
Your green eyes are haunting me
They are all that I can ever see
I'm lucky to make it through the day
Without thoughts of you getting in my way
