Caron Nightingale I should have known all along (1)
There was something wrong
I just never read between the lines (2)
Then I woke up one day
And found you on your way (3)
Leaving nothing but my heart behind (4)
What can I do to make it up to you (5)
Promises don't come easy (6)
But tell me if there's a way
To bring you back home to stay
Well I'd promise anything to you (7)
I've been walkin' around (8)
With my head hanging down
Wonderin' what I'm gonna do (9)
'Cause when you walked out that door (10)
I knew I needed you more
Than to take a chance on losing you (11)
What can I do to make it up to you
Promises don't come easy
But tell me if there's a way
To bring you back home to stay
Well I'd promise anything to you
You never thought I loved you
I guess you never thought I cared
Well I was just too proud to say it out loud (12)
Now I know to let my feelings go (13)
(So tell me)
What can I do to make it up to you
Promises don't come easy
You know I've made up my mind
To make it work this time (14)
That's the promise I can give to you
What can I do to make it up to you

《不要轻言承诺》
我本应一直明白
我们之间出现了问题
我从来没有体会出你的弦外之音
于是有一天我醒来
发现你已离去
只留下了我的心 我该如何补偿你呢
承诺不是轻易作出的
告诉我是否有一种方法
可以让你回到我身边
那样的话我愿向你承诺一切 我四处游荡
脑袋低垂
不知如何是好
因为当你走出门去
我知道我需要你
而不愿失去你
我该如何补偿你呢
承诺不是轻易作出的
告诉我是否有一种方法
可以让你回到我身边
那么我愿向你承诺一切 你过去从不觉得我爱你
你大概也觉得我不在乎吧
但我只不过是太矜持而无法大声表白
现在我知道应该让情感释放
(告诉我)
我该如何补偿你呢
承诺不是轻易做出的
我已下定决心
这次一定可以
这就是我可以给你的承诺
我该如何补偿你呢
