Promise Honest
A Pledge of Love's Redemption
Lyrics
Now that you're gone
Expressing the absence of someone important.
Everything I do seems so wrong
Feeling a sense of wrongdoing or emptiness without the person.
Nothing is the same anymore
Highlighting the profound change in life after the departure of the person.
Then I'm to blame
Accepting responsibility and admitting fault for the situation.
Even my toes usually so calm and composed
Describing emotional turmoil, even in small aspects of life like calm toes.
Arguing to see whether you'll come back to me
Expressing the emotional struggle and uncertainty about reconciliation.
I'm not sad , it's true
Denying sadness but hoping for a positive outcome.
I just pray that you do
Expressing a sincere desire for the person to return through prayer.
And I promise honest never to hurt you again
Making a commitment not to cause harm again.
Cross my heart and I hope to die, please
Using a solemn promise, emphasizing the seriousness of the commitment.
I don't care a hoot about this woman's liberation
Expressing a disregard for women's liberation, focusing solely on the relationship.
All I care about is if you'll come back to me
Reiterating the importance of the person's return over other concerns.
And I promise honest never to hurt you again
Reaffirming the commitment to avoid causing harm.
Even if it means given up my life
Expressing a willingness to make a significant sacrifice for reconciliation.
Love knows that I care for you darling
Acknowledging deep care and affection for the person.
In as much as I'd even become your wife
Expressing a commitment to a long-term relationship, possibly marriage.
Couldn't we try
Suggesting a plea for reconciliation and a willingness to try again.
Something in the region of why
Asking for a reason or understanding for the situation.
Even a glance
Noticing a potential opportunity for reconciliation.
I can tell that there's a chance
Believing in the possibility of a positive outcome.
All this and more
Referring to potential improvements or positive aspects of the relationship.
Some maybe not feeling poor
Suggesting that some aspects may not be as negative as they seem.
Brother, like a hen
Using metaphorical language to convey feeling restricted or controlled.
That's been led up yet again
Comparing oneself to a mistreated hen, indicating vulnerability.
All I'm asking you
Making a direct plea for another chance.
Me one more chance too
Expressing a personal need for reconciliation and another opportunity.
Repeat
Repeating the plea for another chance, reinforcing its importance.
