Cross your fingers behind your back   Squeeze mine until they crack   I must have known you were just promising   Promising, promising      Toothy smile, girly style   In the back yard, all the while   I must have known you were just promising   Promising, promising      I promise you and you promise me   Not to admit defeat   I promise, you promise me      So comforting, wear your ring   Over my head, around my finger   I must have known you were just promising   Promising, promising      I promise you and you promise me   Not to admit defeat   I promise, you promise me
