Promises

You promised me much, not the stars, not the moon
But you promised me that we had time
Well, your patience was short and you broke very soon
What you promised, and I try now to put in a rhyme

What I feel, what I think about that
I don’t think that I should feel betrayed
But I still feel the impression that we possibly had
Resolved our troubles if you would have stayed

I want you to know that you’re special for me
And I still feel you deep in my heart
There is still lots of things that make me want to see
That our journey together is just at the start

You are free now from every promise you made
I understand that it was your deep inner choice
That you had to break up and to go through the gate
Which we opened inside and you followed the voice

Which was calling you back to your life
And which told you to listen again
I really thought we could be man and wife
But now I come back and I’m doing the same

I look back in my heart, I’m still feeling you there
But I try now to keep what I promised to you
Try to clean up myself, that’s the main thing to care
And that makes all our promises true
