Lyrics
[Verse 1]
We said
"let's make this happen"
But the days just drifted by
Left our plans on the table
Coffee rings and old replies
We were young and always certain
Every door would stay unlocked
Now the mail's a little heavier
Full of chances that we dropped
[Chorus]
Are promises kept in our minds
Or promises kept in our hearts?
We waited long enough to find out
Did we heal or just fall apart?
Time is just the memory
Of every choice we couldn’t restart
Are promises kept in our minds
Babe
Or promises kept in our hearts?
[Verse 2]
You still hum that same old melody
When you’re driving home from work
Say you’re fine
You’re just distracted
But I hear the hidden hurt
Every road we didn’t follow
Shows up when the nights get slow
All the "later" we were saving
Turned to "guess we’ll never know"
[Chorus]
Are promises kept in our minds
Or promises kept in our hearts?
We waited long enough to find out
Did we heal or just fall apart?
Time is just the memory
Of every choice we couldn’t restart
Are promises kept in our minds
Babe
Or promises kept in our hearts?
[Bridge]
Maybe we did the best we could
Or maybe we just got scared (mm)
Every sunrise looks like forgiveness
But some regrets stay there (stay there)
If I could go back to that first night
I’d hold your shaking hands and say
"Let’s make this happen right now
Before the moment slips away" (yeah)
[Chorus]
Are promises kept in our minds
Or promises kept in our hearts?
We waited long enough to find out
Did we heal or just fall apart?
Time is just the memory
Of every choice we couldn’t restart
Are promises kept in our minds
Babe
Or promises kept in our hearts?
[Outro]
We said
"let’s make this happen"
Softly in the dark
Guess the truth we’re left here holding
Is what we did
Not what we talked
