The Muddle - Promise of You Lyrics

Faded pictures in boxes in my brain
Scraps of memories of things that might have been
Are all stored away

And the mask of a smile hides the track of a tear
And the shadows of fate make the image unclear
Til only the space remains

And through the darkness I can barely see
All of the futures that were never meant to be
Of the fools who would trust

But hope has a taste and hope has a feel
And hope has a weight that makes it seem real
Til you reach and it turns to dust

And I know I'll never be the same
The feeling fades and it comes back round again
My heart will always have this permanent stain
Left by the promise of you

And I know I'll never be the same
The feeling fades and it comes back round again
My heart will always have this permanent stain
Left by the promise of you
