Lyrics
Bobby was a killer on that old guitar he could really make it sing
Back in school he was the coolest
guy we all knew a promise to believe in
But a teenage promise is like a candle in the wind
It turns into lies
I met him in the market just the other day and he wasn't looking great
He said I'd love to stop and talk but you caught me running late
He said he doesn't even pick it up these days
It's just a lie said to survive when
you've got to choke that fire inside
Truth is more bitter than lies
Jimmy slept over the other night i miss this son of mine
I was looking at him in his little bed and his mother crossed my mind
Our promise was not kept but I don't have regrets
Jimmy's not a lie
