Promise Me - Big Tree

Promise me you’ll never settle

Promise me you’ll find shimmer in every matte hue

«The sky does not need to be blue.»

That’s what I learned from you

Promise me you’ll save your magic

For someone who wants sparkle in in their life

Let’s buikd a stone house in the woods

I don’t know how to not be good to you

You won’t need a scale to weigh how much love I have for

You won’t need a clock to count the minutes I will wait for

You won’t need a level, I’ll walk on crooked floors if need be

I don’t want to forget how to say

I love you

Promise me if we go ten years without speaking

You will still dream of me

You’ll grow your hair out

I’ll cut mine

I’ll think about you all the time, all the time

Promise me when our bones get brittle

You will still see glitter in every day life

Come blue rain or pink sunshine

We’ll still make love all the time, all the time

You won’t need a scale to weigh how much love I have for

You won’t need a clock to count the minutes I will wait for

You won’t need a level, I’ll walk on crooked floors if need be

I don’t want to forget how to say I love you

Never settle (x4)

I don’t want to forget how to say (x3)

I love you

Kiss me on my collar bones

And I will surely rise

To watch with you the new day

To sit there warming your side

Did you know birds can learn new songs

Did you know night was so short

Did you hear the last thing I whispered

I hope not, I hope not

Rest your hands on my cold knees

So I may drift to sleep

To dream of curling round you

And wake to find you with me

Never settle (x4)

I don’t want to forget how to say (x3)

I love you
