David Harris - The Promises We Made

The old place,
has changed a lot.
Since I’ve been away.
But I have not forgot.
The promises,
we made that day.

Many years have passed on by.
We can’t put them to one side.
Nor can we,
brush away tears through the years,
we’ve cried.

Though I love you,
much more than I did then.
Things have happened though the years,
we can’t change.
You are married now.
Have to keep you husband’s table laid.
So we’ll not keep,
those promises we made.

David Harris
