Boy make me a promise

So make me promises boy,
Tell me everything is as good as right,
Yes the kind I know you can't keep,
And hold me tight,
I try to smile when I see the lies coming out.

And while I'm losing my mind,
You’re acting so kind,
I hope you're home finding sleep,
You’re mine to keep.

Cuz you and I both know that that's not the case,
One day I saw your face,
Because the look on your face gives all your secrets away,
At a slow pace.

I'm losing my mind,
I cannot bare to be left behind,
I hope you're home finding sleep,
As I weep.

And while I'm losing my mind,
You’re acting so kind,
I hope you're home finding sleep,
You’re mine to keep.
