Broken Promises Songtext
von Sandy Dillon

We made our bed

But we cannot lie in it
My pillow′s damp
'Cause every night I cry in it
But it wouldn′t seem as bad
As the nightmares of our dreams

I've given up all my hope
My dope and my movie star dreams
You broke all your promises
And I broke all kinds of stuff
And you went off to Rome
'Cause the moon is not enough


Do you remember
All the movies that we saw?
To have and to have not
Sherlock Holmes and the Giant Claw
We sat in the front row
Blinded by the light
I dug my fingernails into your hands and they bled
But you said that was all right

You broke all of those promises
And I broke all kinds of stuff
You went off to Rome
′Cause the moon is not enough

Like Romeo and Juliet
We were two fools who just met
I′ve given up my kings and queens
I have given up my movie star dreams
But that was many years ago
Now it's my turn to go to Rome

It′s just so hard to be seen
Going to the movies alone
