When Hell Freezes Over

I've promises to keep

when the first frost covers Hell

I promised that when it should freeze

I would write a song and perform it for all to see

I promised that I would abandon my love for others

when Hell freezes

so that I may focus on me

I've promises to keep

and I've secrets to tell

I've many thing on my list to do

when the first frost covers Hell

I promised, when Hell grows cold,

I may cry with no regret and no shame

I promised to everyone

that I would give up

when time freezes over the flame

I've promises to keep

and all the time in the world to keep them

But I've also got what appears to be seconds

before the world gives in to mayhem

Perhaps I'll make good of my word sooner than I thought

if the world continues the way it's going

But I also promised to break hearts when Hell freezes

so maybe I should hope not

We must be careful of the promises we make

in case the time comes we keep them all

We must be careful of the promises we make

for one day we might be out of time to stall
