Promise Not to Think About Love Lyrics

Not to think about love
But to see the way you play it
I have taken a vow
Now I want to hear you say it
Are you troubled at all
If I make no hesitation
When you ask me not to think about love?
I don’t think about love
When I see you kiss another
It won’t matter at all
No I won’t hold to its power
I have given it up
And I’ve seen the final hour
When I tell you I don’t think about love
I don’t think about it
And I won’t sing about it now
I promise not to think about love
I don’t think about love
I don’t need the incantation
I have given it up
Oh, I had my reservations
Were your friends there at all?
Did they offer consolation
When I promised not to think about love?
I don’t think about it
And I won’t sing about it now
I promise not to think about love
Promise not to think about love
Promise not to think about love
Promise not to think about love

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
