We built sandcastles that washed away I made you cry when I walked away, oh Although I promised that I couldn't stay, baby Every promise don't work out that way, oh babe Every promise don't work out that way
Dishes smashed on my counter from our last encounter Pictures snatched out the frame Bitch, I scratched out your name and your face What is it about you that I can't erase, baby? When every promise don't work out that way, no, no, babe When every promise don't work out that way
And your heart is broken 'cause I walked away Show me your scars and I won't walk away, oh And I know I promised that I couldn't stay, baby (ooh) Every promise don't work out that way, no, no, no, no, no Every promise don't work out that way
