Lyrics
[Verse 1]
It's been this way since seventeen
The highs and lows and in betweens, my love
We said forever ever since we give a lot, but do we give enough?
[Chorus]
I know we made our promises, but promises are hard to keep
I don't know if it's meant to be, but ooh-ooh-ooh, that's the dream
[Verse 2]
Got this wedding in a week
Can't believe you won't be there with me, my love
I know that space is supposed to help, but I feel like a shadow of myself
[Chorus]
I know we made our promises, but promises are hard to keep
I don't know if it's meant to be, but ooh-ooh-ooh, that's the dream
That's the dream
[Bridge]
Ah-ah-ah-ah
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ah-ah-ah-ah
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
[Chorus]
I know we made our promises, but promises are hard to keep
But why'd I have to go and leave when I know nothing good comes easily?
I don't know if it's meant to be, but ooh-ooh-ooh, that's the dream
[Outro]
Ooh-ooh-ooh, that's the dream
Ooh-ooh-ooh, that's the dream
