If i had known of what would come
I might have walked outta here a lot less harmed
But i'm no lady of the glass
And i can't foretell what will pass
And i went with my defenses down
As your love sent me spinning spinning 'round
Oh you took me to the very top
And then i took a bad (and) long long drop
Oh promises are made to be broken
That's all i ever learned from loving you
And oh when you opened up your love to me
You opened up pandora's box
Oh promises are made to bend and stretch oh
And end up being really worthless
And oh when i opened up the door to you
I opened up pandora's box
Just one look and i knew you knew
I was all hung up hung up on loving you
I just put all my trust in love
And i placed a big old bet on lady love
I was sentenced to loving you
And i'm serving time in solitude
Yeah i gave ya everything that i got
And you took it all and walked right off
Oh promises are made to be broken
That's all i ever learned from loving you
And oh when you opened up your love to me
You opened up pandora's box
Oh promises are made to bend and stretch oh
And end up being really worthless
And oh when i opened up the door to you
I opened up pandora's box
Just one look and i knew you knew
I was all hung up hung up on loving you
I just put all my trust in love
And i placed a big old bet on lady love
Oh promises are made to be broken
That's all i ever learned from loving you
And oh when you opened up your love to me
You opened up pandora's box
Oh promises are made to bend and stretch oh
And end up being really worthless
And oh when i opened up the door to you
I opened up pandora's box
Oh promises are made to be broken
That's all i ever learned from loving you
And oh when you opened up your love to me
You opened up pandora's box
Oh promises are made to bend and stretch oh
And en up being really worthless
By the shore of the sea searching for his memory
Sifting sand through my hand weighing what he means to me
In the early morning haze seagulls seem to cry my pain
And ocean feels it too sighs his name on whispering waves
Wrote his name next to mine big and deep there in the sand
Till the earth tends to flow and our names will be drowned
All the birds sing harmonies to the top line of the breeze
While the ocean breathes his name on whispering waves
There's a bistro where we would dine each evening
Candle light and california wine
Love is holding hands across the table
I still go past each night
Look for his car outside
At the foot of this cliff we spent days weaving our dreams
Making plans building homes raising kids and coloring scenes
Then one morning he was gone and our story reached an end
But his words still linger on on whispering waves
Aah, ahh, ahh...
By the shore of the sea searching for his memory
Sifting sand through my hand weighing what he means to me
All the birds sing harmonies to the top line of the breeze
While the ocean breathes his name on whispering waves
