lyrics
You said it at Tipsy Tiger, just after two Your glass had thumbprints, mine had yours in view You laughed at the till, then you said, “I’ll show” Now you’re at my door with the same small glow Boots on the tile, keys in your hand You’re standing real still like you meant that plan Cold chicken in foil, twelve red roses too You kept that drunk promise, now I’m looking at you Kept the promise Kept the promise Kept the promise Kept the promise You came through at last We crossed to Maboneng in a dented grey cab You wore that blue shirt and the sleeve was still half-stabbed You bought me a kota, then you paid for the ride Said, “I was too gone, but I kept it inside” One small grin, then you reached for my arm Your phone on ten percent, your face still warm Late train whistle, bottle by the sink You kept that drunk promise, I can feel you think Kept the promise Kept the promise Kept the promise Kept the promise You came through at last At half past one, you were talking too fast Now morning is breaking, and the moment can last No big speech, just your palm in my mine You said you would, and you came right on time Kept the promise Kept the promise Kept the promise Kept the promise You came through at last
