[Verse 1] Lovesick promises Scribbled in a corner of a yearbook page Your name in my handwriting Getting softer every time I say it That diner by the river Cracked vinyl booth in the back Jukebox hum Cherry cola Your head on my shoulder I still feel that [Chorus] Lovesick promises Hanging in the air Like faded photos You’re everywhere In my album In my wallet On my wall you’re frozen there Lovesick promises I still believe Tiny ghosts tucked into every sleeve If I tried to throw them out Would my heart go with them? Lovesick promises Ink that never dries Every corner of my life You’re a picture I still carry On the inside (on the inside) [Verse 2] Same old parking lot They painted over where we carved our names Fresh white lines right through us Guess the asphalt finally moved on Changed But in this folded snapshot You’re mid-laugh Sunlight in your hair I trace the crease down your cheek Pretend you’re standing right there (hey) [Chorus] Lovesick promises Hanging in the air Like faded photos You’re everywhere In my album In my wallet On my wall you’re frozen there Lovesick promises I still believe Tiny ghosts tucked into every sleeve If I tried to throw them out Would my heart go with them? Lovesick promises Ink that never dries Every corner of my life You’re a picture I still carry On the inside (on the inside) [Bridge] If I box up all these memories Seal them tight with careful tape Will the empty frames Finally give me space? Or will I keep that one last picture Hiding where you’ll never see Just in case someday you ask “Did you ever keep a piece of me?” [Chorus] Lovesick promises Hanging in the air Like faded photos You’re everywhere In my album In my wallet On my wall you’re frozen there Lovesick promises Ink that never dries Every corner of my life You’re a picture I still carry On the inside (on the inside)
