I gave you a hard time, I told you the news there's no "I'm sorries" 'cause there ain't no excuse the things I've been doin', the things that I say the road to ruin between you and me
my reasons for cheating, I don't know what to say maybe it's nature, havin' its way you know that I love you, but that's easy to say you'd make me proud of you if you would stay
I promised you sunshine, I promised you you'd be all mine instead of the good times, a killer came and took your heart away
I gave you hard times, baby I told the truth and lies
I was silly believing my lies could last 'cause sooner or later the rumour would spread I often wonder how the things would be if you hadn't found out the truth about that girl and me
can't promise you sunshine, can't promise you you'll be all mine I'll try to be honest, unlike the first time it won't slip my mind
repeat chorus
I look out the window, I watch the street kids grow life was so easy when I was that old there were no lies and no things to be told just lullabies and time to grow old
