[Verse
You said you'd always be there shadows in our past
A promise whispered softly but nothing seems to last
Your words once lit my mornings now they only burn
The love that we once cherished has nowhere to return
[Verse 2
We danced beneath the moonlight stars were in your eyes
But now I'm left in darkness tangled in your lies
You spoke of endless tomorrows but you were never true
Just an echo in the silence memories fading blue
[Chorus
Empty promises like feathers in the wind
They float away so aimless lost where we begin
You carved your name upon my heart then walked away so cold
Empty promises left a story to unfold
[Verse 3
We built a castle on the shore waves washed it away
Your love came like the tide then left me as its prey
Broken dreams now scattered like glass upon the floor
The words you left still haunt me echoes from before
[Bridge
You said we'd weather any storm but you set sail alone
Now I stand here in the rain with a heart made of stone
Your vow was just a mirage a vision in the sand
Empty promises like water slipping through my hand
[Chorus
Empty promises like feathers in the wind
They float away so aimless lost where we begin
You carved your name upon my heart then walked away so cold
Empty promises left a story to unfold
