"I Promised You Then"
"Hugur minn er"
I Promised You Then
Forever and now, you fill my mind
Still carry the heart you left behind
Memories dusty and grey
Like locked-away pieces of art
Tears stream down my face
'Cause your love I cannot replace
I promised you then
I would promise you now
I will love you the same
When you're gone
I couldn't make you stay
Stare into the future, a shadow of my old self
So lonely and scared, so unprepared
I thought our love would survive
Through time and through pain
Nothing will ever
Mean the same
I promised you then
I would promise you now
I will love you the same
When you're gone
I couldn't make you stay
Couldn't make you stay
Couldn't make you stay
Couldn't make you stay
I feel your breath on my skin
Gently you hold me tight
I open my eyes
You're no longer by my side
Promised you then
I would promise you now
I will love you the same
But you're gone, gone away
Couldn't make you stay
Couldn't make you stay
You're gone
I couldn't make you ѕtаy
