lyrics

You said it loud beside the sink, with rain on the pane

At Kallio night tram stop, you laughed through the rain

I found your note in my coat, folded with the change

Morning came hard on the table, but you stayed the same

February on the window, breath on the glass

My name in your pocket, still there from the last

You shook off the vodka, you answered my call

And every foolish word came back in the hall

Kept your word, kept your word

Kept your word, kept your word

One drunk promise, still held firm

Kept your word, kept your word

By Hakaniemi market, you bought black bread and dill

Your gloves were damp by the counter, your eyes were still

You laughed at the bruise on my wrist from the train

Said, "I said I'd come back," and you came again

The bottle was empty on the chair by the wall

Your phone screen glowed blue when the winter wind called

You could've let it vanish, let the whole thing fall

But you stood in the doorway and answered it all

Kept your word, kept your word

Kept your word, kept your word

One drunk promise, still held firm

Kept your word, kept your word

Now the kettle clicks off in the noon-hour heat

Your coat's on the hook, your boots by my feet

No grand speech, no silver ring

Just your roughened hand and the whole room sing

Kept your word, kept your word

Kept your word, kept your word

One drunk promise, still held firm

Kept your word, kept your word
