I Wanna Make Promises (That I Can't Keep) Songtext
von Whitehorse

I wanna make promises that I can′t keep
I wanna make promises that I can't keep

Let′s argue in Ikea
Make a scene, go home and fuck
On unassembled furniture
Fresh off the moving truck

Let's rifle through old photographs
After the basement floods
Black and whites, and polaroids
On clothes lines up above


I wanna make promises that I can't keep
I wanna make promises that I can′t keep

We′ll sign up for wine of the month
Play drinking games for old folks
Sit the cat on kitchen mice
Feign laughs at your old jokes

In the Eastern Townships
With your old man on the porch steps
Knowing that we slowly die
With each and every breath


I wanna make promises that I can't keep
I wanna make promises that I can′t keep
I wanna make promises that I can't keep
I wanna make promises that I can′t keep
