Promise To Me
I do not wait all day
So I can walk with you
I just make my way
And then we can talk it through
I've got something important to say
It's that I would not wait all day
Just so I can smile at you
Would not change my ways
So that I can see it through
If you want then
I'd write you a song
Say it simply
I'm not what you want
You know I'd break my neck
Only to check for sure
That today ended too early
Could've sailed away
Just my lover and me
All the salt in the sea
Was your promise to me
All the salt in the sea
Was your promise to me
All the salt in the sea
Was your promise to me
It's not me, it's this place
And this time and this space
All the salt in the sea
I do spend my time
Painting pictures of the south
Do not waste my mind
Takes too much to sort it out
Don't make me get the bus on my own
Talk to me when I finally get home
You know I bought a heart
From a little market stall
Down by the bay
Brought it home to the man
Who could've owned
The souls of LA
When you get old
Think you'll be told
That you could've been free
All the salt in the sea
Was your promise
All the salt in the sea
Was your promise to me
So I know that it's
Time to go so say so
So low 'cause you know
I'd rather stay
Though I know
I look for patterns
In patterns themselves
Once you spot it
It's hard to see anything else
It's not me, it's this place
And this time and this space
All the salt in the sea
Was your promise
All the salt in the sea
Was your promise to
All the salt in the sea
Was your promise to me
All the salt in the sea
Was your promise
All the salt in the sea
Was your promise to
All the salt in the sea
Was your promise to me
Today ended too early
Could've sailed away
Just my lover and me
All the salt in the sea
Was your promise to me
So I can walk with you
I just make my way
And then we can talk it through
I've got something important to say
It's that I would not wait all day
Just so I can smile at you
Would not change my ways
So that I can see it through
If you want then
I'd write you a song
Say it simply
I'm not what you want
You know I'd break my neck
Only to check for sure
That today ended too early
Could've sailed away
Just my lover and me
All the salt in the sea
Was your promise to me
All the salt in the sea
Was your promise to me
All the salt in the sea
Was your promise to me
It's not me, it's this place
And this time and this space
All the salt in the sea
I do spend my time
Painting pictures of the south
Do not waste my mind
Takes too much to sort it out
Don't make me get the bus on my own
Talk to me when I finally get home
You know I bought a heart
From a little market stall

Brought it home to the man
Who could've owned
The souls of LA

That you could've been free
All the salt in the sea

All the salt in the sea
Was your promise to me
So I know that it's

It's not me, it's this place
And this time and this space
All the salt in the sea
Was your promise
All the salt in the sea
Was your promise to
All the salt in the sea
Was your promise to me
All the salt in the sea
Was your promise
All the salt in the sea
Was your promise to
All the salt in the sea
Was your promise to me
Today ended too early
Could've sailed away
Just my lover and me
All the salt in the sea
Was your promise to me
