Promise Ring

Long ago, I drew a line into the sand
Jumped across and held your hand
Band of gold protect us from the bitter tide
That comes to wash away
Our words with time

Hello you, hello me
Hello hello, can't you see
Love is more than what it seems
So I wear your promise ring

Promises made under the rite of spring
Heavy under summer's sting say you know
I'd run to where the spaceships land
A million miles between
My mouth and hand

Hello you, hello me
Hello hello, can't you see
Love is more than what it seems
So I wear your promise ring

Love labors through the night
It bleeds and never fights
And like a seed it lives because it dies

So don't forget, just like cash
I walk the line
Like a soldier guarding what is mine

Hello you, hello me
Hello hello, can't you see
Love is more than what it seems
So I wear your promise ring
