Promises Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Drove this time to your house at night
Saw a car, but it sure ain't mine

[Pre-Chorus]
Must be someone here
It's my worst fear
Must be someone here
Not my first tear

[Chorus]
All this is, is another mistake
Is another mistake to check off my list
All this is, is another big break
Is another big break of promises
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Promises
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Promises

[Verse 2]
Hard to stop when my car's in drive
When I can't stop thoughts of driving right inside your place

[Pre-Chorus]
Must be someone here
It's my worst fear
Must be someone here
Not my first tear

[Chorus]
All this is, is another mistake
Is another mistake to check off my list
All this is, is another big break
Is another big break of promises
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Promises
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Promises

[Bridge]
Guess I'll go back
Guess I'll go home now
Gotta turn around
There's nothing here for me now
Nothing here for me now

[Chorus]
All this is, is another mistake
Is another mistake to check off my list
All this is, is another big break
Is another big break of promises
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Promises
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Promises
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Promises

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.
