Long ago, I drew a line into the sand
Jumped across and held your hand
Band of gold, protect us from the bitter times
that come to wash away our words with time
[chorus]
Hello you, hello me
Hello, hello
Can't you see?
Love is more than what it seems
So I wear your promise ring
Promises wait until the rite of spring
Heavy under summer sting
Say you know
I run to where the space ships land
A million miles between my mouth and hands
[chorus]
Love laid them through the night
It bleeds and never fights
And like a seed it lives because
It dies
So don't forget just like cash
I walk the line, like a soldier
Guarding what is mine
[chorus]
I wear your promise ring
I wear your promise ring
I wear your promise ring
