I Broke My Promise

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I broke my promise That I wouldn't write another song about you I guess I lied. After twelve years I still love you On the phone you sound happy, but a heart can cry And you don't see the tears [Chorus: Mark Eitzel, Band, All] I'm glad you went back I'm glad I'm glad you went back I'm glad you went back I'm glad I'm glad you went back [Verse 2] The California sun always shines Oh, but San Francisco is a cold place To have a run of bad luck Everyone likes to shine their little flashlights in your face [Chorus: Mark Eitzel, Band, All] I'm glad you went back I'm glad I'm glad you went back I'm glad you went back I'm glad I'm glad you went back [Bridge] The blue, blue sky is made of butcher knives And everyone you meet is wearing some stupid disguise In Columbus, there's not spotlight to dazzle your eyes I hope you find someone who loves you 'Cause only love will save you Only love [Verse 3] I broke my promise 'Cause I've missed you for so long I can feel you in my life when you're happy No matter where you are, no matter where you are [Chorus: Mark Eitzel, Band, All] I'm glad you went back I'm glad I'm glad you went back I'm glad you went back I'm glad I'm glad you went back, yeah I'm glad I'm glad
