We built sand castles
That washed away
I made you cry
When I walked away, oh
And although I promised
That I couldn't stay, bae, baby
Every promise
Don't work out that way
Oh, babe
Every promise
Don't work out that way
Dishes smashed on my counter
From our last encounter
Pictures snatched out the frame
Bitch, I scratched out your name
And your face
What is it about you
That I can't erase, baby?
When every promise
Don't work out that way
No, no, babe
When every promise
Don't work out that way
And your heart is broken
Cause I walked away
Show me your scars
And I won't walk away, oh
And I know I promised
That I couldn't stay, bae, baby
Every promise
Don't work out that way
No no no no no
Every promise
Don't work out that way
