The Promise I Broke

By: Brittney Collett Shoap

I stare in your eyes, as you tell me goodbye
Then think of the one that's waiting back home

I know it's not right, but it's just for tonight
I lean forward and kiss you, as you kiss me, too

How can I tell him about the one I had then
The one that was my crush, and thought that kiss was a must

I promised him I'd be good, as I thought I would
Now I feel sad, because I know he'll be mad

I love him with all my heart, and could never part
I'll never hurt him again, like I did then
