I could not keep that promise
I made to you before,
Not the one about my love for you
That's forevermore.

We vowed to grow old together
On that very special night,
I only see the darkness now
Even with stars shining bright.

We rushed back to the frenzy
That was our former life,
Changes that we vowed to make
Forgotten in the strife.

The jobs, the kids, so little sleep
Got to me like before,
To add to the confusion
Isolation, even more.

Someday you may forgive me
I pray that it is so,
I can't go any longer
You have to let me go.

Jesus will forgive my sin
He knows when we're this way,
They're sick, he says, it's not their fault
Come with me, it's OK.
