A PROMISE
- chicosci –

Now you are my beloved ghost
And here I'll wait for you to sing
Then we well have eternity
A promise to keep haunting me

This wine from my veins
These gifts we'll take

The sky is ours to keep tonight
Together in this silent sleep
We are the mist that fills the air
Lie still, just to be with me

This wine from my veins
These gifts we'll take
And I'll be the kiss
The gun we'll be draining their blood again
Embrace the rest of me
We'll be racing through the night
Again, embrace the rest of me
And then we'll feast on them, celebrating

I'm not alone
I can feel your eyes on me
I'm not alone
Your soul for all the world to see

Denied another day
Life took you away
…I'll love you just the same

Cause you are my beloved ghost
And here I'll wait for you to sing
Then we will have eternity
A promise to keep haunting me
The sky is ours to keep tonight
Together in this silent sleep
We are the mist that fills the air
Lie still just be with me

I'm not alone
I can feel your eyes on me
I'm not alone
Your soul for all the world to see

    a promise is for both Miggy and Calde's grandfathers or "Lolo"s. they both died around the same time, so it's about the love their grandfathers had for their grandmothers and family. bam.

Ed Sheeran reflects on his good fortunes in landing someone with such peace and support and speaks of not fearing the dark days because he knows they’ll all end in the safety nets of her arms. “Well, good morning there / What a way to start the day / With everything laid bare,” Ed Sheeran sings in the first verse, enthusiastic to be waking up beside his woman. He apologizes for missing her calls in the second verse and promises to return them because for him, speaking to her is the most important thing. “Well, I get lost inside my head / In this chaos, you’re my calm / And I will find my feet again / ‘Cause еven the worst days of my life will always еnd / At midnight in your arms,” sings Ed Sheeran in the chorus, revelling in his good luck.
