Promises Lyrics

take off those rose tinted glasses 
put away your impulsive dreams 
our story's only just started 
do you get what I mean 
because we 
don't wanna run before we walk 
there's time to see us running 
we should think before we talk 
cos I feel it coming 
if rules were meant to break 
and love can fade away 
then we don't need to make promises 
I've been there once before 
I gotta know for sure 
the hardest things to keep are promises 
some things are best left unspoken 
until the time is right 
some hearts are easily broken 
tempting fate with sweet lies 
I don't wanna run before we walk 
there's time to see us running 
we should think before we talk 
cos I feel it coming if rules were meant to break 
and love can fade away 
then we don't need to make promises 
I've been there once before 
I gotta know for sure 
the hardest things to keep are promises 
right now it's clear to see 
I'm where I want to be 
I think it's 
safe to say 
we both feel the same 
just as long as weve got truth and honesty 
baby all you gotta do 
is show me what I mean to you 
repeat chorus to fade
