You said when we come of age
-5 5 -4 -5 5 6
You would give a true love,
5 -4 6 5 -4
a great love to me.
4 6 -6 6 -5 -6 6
You vowed when we come of age
-6 6 -4 -5 5 6
You would bring me heaven
5 -5 6 -3 4
and share it with me.

Through the awkward young years,
-5 6 -6 -5 6
I would dream of you.
-6 -7 7 -6 -7 6
Fearing as a child fears
5 -4 5 4 -4
You'd find someone new.
4 6 -6 6 -5 -6 6
Time past and the doubting, too.
-5 5 -4 -5 5
As we came of age
6 5 -4 -4 6 -3 4
all your promises came true.
