Bottled Promise
I had to step back when she spoke your name
And my mind flashed back to a windy night
In the fall of '98
Just a young girl talking to a boy
Who was just becoming a man
And as the shingles dug into my backbone
We shared a laugh, sha la, sha la la la, ha ha ha yeah
And as the booze kicked in any thoughts of sin
Slowly faded away
Well all I remember is wishing whole hearted that the
Girl could have stayed there with me
Just a while
I remember all the kindness behind your smilin'
And you, you and I were
Two strangers staring up at the sky
And I wonder what you're doing now
I hear you're living nearby
So I wrote this song to remember
To remind you to be mine
Should I pick up the phone
Now that we have grown
Who knows what the future holds
I'm sure there must be a little chemistry
From keeping her warm in the cold
And the one kiss we had was so far from bad
It had me feeling like the fourth of July
And now this Jack and Coke girl has
Hit the bottled promise quota
So I offer her a ticket to ride
With me
Just a while
I remember all the kindness behind your smilin'
And you, you and I were
Two strangers staring up at the sky
And I wonder what you're doing now
I hear you're living nearby
So I wrote this song to remember
To remind you to be mine
I hear you're living nearby
So I wrote this song to remember
To remind you to be mine
And my mind flashed back to a windy night
In the fall of '98
Just a young girl talking to a boy
Who was just becoming a man
And as the shingles dug into my backbone
We shared a laugh, sha la, sha la la la, ha ha ha yeah
And as the booze kicked in any thoughts of sin
Slowly faded away
Well all I remember is wishing whole hearted that the
Girl could have stayed there with me
Just a while
I remember all the kindness behind your smilin'
And you, you and I were
Two strangers staring up at the sky
And I wonder what you're doing now
I hear you're living nearby
So I wrote this song to remember
To remind you to be mine
Should I pick up the phone
Now that we have grown
Who knows what the future holds
I'm sure there must be a little chemistry
From keeping her warm in the cold
And the one kiss we had was so far from bad
It had me feeling like the fourth of July
And now this Jack and Coke girl has
Hit the bottled promise quota
So I offer her a ticket to ride
With me
Just a while
I remember all the kindness behind your smilin'
And you, you and I were
Two strangers staring up at the sky
And I wonder what you're doing now
I hear you're living nearby
So I wrote this song to remember
To remind you to be mine
I hear you're living nearby
So I wrote this song to remember
To remind you to be mine
