Stop The World

You made me a promise
That's we'd stop the world
We'd turn back time
And glimpse the future
You made me a promise
So I waited
With breath baited

And so everyday
A smile given, a smile returned
A memory made
A photo taken
And so everyday
I still waited
With breath baited

A funny thing time is
Passing faster than expected
A hope deteriorates
A soul crushed
A funny thing time is
Yet still I waited
With breath baited

A tear is shed
One has left, moved on
A promise forgotten
A tear is shed
Because I had waited
With breath baited
