Set It Off I Promise
If you step back and realize
I'm sure that you'll see,
That these words that were spoken, eventually
Will dwell in my conscience
Till my dying day.
Oh what can I say
To change your perception
Want me by your side
The fact that you've moved on
Makes me want to cry.
And if you open your door
I'll be there with arms wide,
Just begging and praying for one more goodbye.
So I'll wait for you,
even though you don't want me to.
Because I'm not over you
I promise, this word they call love
Come push or to shove
I meant it and now I'm in tears
My love
Oh my love
Oh
I keep telling, myself that
It's not what it seems
And wish that you wouldn't keep haunting my dreams.
I'll shoot out of bed and
Wake up in a sweat
How could I forget?
I imagined the worst when
We were on the phone
As you sat there and told me that you were alone
I can see him, I know how
He makes you behave,
That this wasn't the girl that I kissed on our date
But I'll wait for you
even though you don't want me to.
Because I'm not over you
I promise, this word they call love
Come push or to shove
I meant it and now I'm in tears
Because I'm not over you
I promise, you won't see this face
Show up at your place
Although I'm in town, I'll stay here
My love
Oh my love.
My love
Oh my love
And I should know better,
Give up while I can,
And prove to the world that I'll be my own man.
You broke me and took me along for the ride.
And this pain that you've left me
Should maybe subside.
But I'm not over you
I promise, this word they call love
Come push or to shove
I meant it and now I'm in tears
Because I'm not over you
I promise, you won't see this face
Show up at your place
Although I'm in town I'll stay here
Cuz I'm not over you
I promise, this word they call love
Come push or to shove
I meant it and now I'm in tears
My love.
