Good Lord - Birds Of Tokyo

We took an oath in those lines

Me in my tie and you all dressed in white

When the band played «Hey Now»

Our families danced celebrating our vows

Nobody loved you like I did

Thought you’d be mother to my kid

But it all changed when I saw you with someone else

Good lord good lord good lord

You made all those promises

But you broke them like my heart

Saying things like darling I do

Until death do us apart

Now that times run out on our love

I gotta leave these vows behind

They were empty promises

You would steal me every night

In our city our home as new husband and wife

Drinking in fitzroy pubs till two

Singing those fleetwood songs with you

But it all changed when I saw you with someone else

Good lord good lord good lord

You made all those promises

But you broke them like my heart

Saying things like darling I do

Until death do us apart

Now that times run out on our love

I gotta leave these vows behind

They’re just empty promises

Good lord good lord good lord

I fell so hard to my knees

My eyes said no this can’t be

Who was that guy, he ain’t me

Good lord good lord good lord

You made all those promises

But you broke them like my heart

Saying things like darling I do

Until death do us apart

Now that times run out on our love

I gotta leave this vows behind

They’re just empty promises

Good lord good lord good lord
