Becky Hobbs - She Broke Her Promise lyrics

[Verse 1] On a summer day in nineteen forty-three In a little church with just close family Two lovers vowed with young and tender hearts To have and to hold 'til d**h do they part [Verse 2] As the years rolled by they saw their children grown Oh and he always said if one of us is left alone Let's promise that we'll marry someone new He promised her and she promised him too [Chorus] But she broke her promise, she never wanted another 'Cause there's just no other who could ever come close Their memories together will last her forever She broke her promise she made so long ago [Verse 3] Now she keeps busy living all alone In the little house that memories made a home And the kids drop by to visit when they can But only God knows how much she misses her man [Chorus] She broke her promise, she never wanted another 'Cause there's just no other who could follow her man Their memories together will last her forever She broke her promise but she knows he'd understand
