Jordan White - Before I Go Out lyrics

rate me

Last night I whispered to myself

That the true enemy comes from within

Cause I took another dip in your fire

And I think that I burned myself again

Yes I burned myself again

 

Backdrop, Philadelphia, 2003

All you needed was some oxygen

And a little bit of me

Flashback, Jersey shore, 2008

I'm running in the sand

But you're running kinda late

 

(Chorus)

No promises

No promises at all

Waiting for you waiting for me

Waiting for some call

There's no promises

No promises at all

 

Forget all that -

I just remembered one

The day you said you fell with me

The day without the sun

I'd keep this feeling checked

If I just knew what you would say

To keep you movin' on

To keep you on your way

 

(Chorus)

 

Driving through this city now

There's three words you once said

They picked me up they gave me something

To get outta my own head

Was something about the thunder

The way it comes up fast -

The way you'd wanna hide with me

And wait for it to pass

 

(Chorus)

 

As the skies explode above me -

As I pulled into my lane

I knew you were the only one

To drow me in your rain

Yes you were the only one

To drown me in the rain

Cause afterall

You gave me no promises

And you kept them all

You gave me no promises

And you kept them all

 

You kept them all
