Lukas Graham – Promise lyrics
[Verse 1]
I've been on the road, bringing back money
Yeah, I've been digging gold, I hope you still want me
I know I've been gone a little too long
But money don't grow, so I gotta go
I've been chasing dimes
It's been so lonely, yeah, I've been in the mines
I'm sorry my hours don't work out right
I know I keep you up at night

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause ain't much changed but my age
The man you love is the same
Don't you know that hearts can break easy?
I gave you the best of my pieces

[Chorus]
Promise me you'll let me come back home
Keep my bed warm
'Cause I'm bringing it all back to you
Only say you'll be there when I do

[Verse 2]
Promise you get the best of me
Only you get the rest of me
Got my mind on your waist
You're the life of my party
Got a lot to do
Can't stay in one place too long, I've been on the move
I know you've been waiting, but here's the truth
I want someone to come home to

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause ain't much changed but my age
The man you love is the same
And don't you know that hearts can break easy?
I gave you the best of my pieces

[Chorus]
Promise me you'll let me come back home
Keep my bed warm
'Cause I'm bringing it all back to you (Back to you)
Only say you'll be there when I do
Promise me

[Bridge]
We're not gonna lose this
'Cause I'm on my way right now
It's only home with you in it
Now I'm so close it's unfair

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause ain't much changed but my age
The man you love is the same
And don't you know that hearts can break easy?
I gave you the best of my pieces

[Chorus]
Promise me you'll let me come back home
Keep my bed warm
'Cause I'm bringing it all back to you (Back to you)
Only say you'll be there when I do

[Outro]
Promise me
Promise me
Promise you get the best of me
Only you get that recipe
Got my mind on your waist
