Ringgo 5 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's been a hard days night for me, for you and me
A couple bottle with a bit of trouble
This night is undeniable
Hope that i can just turn away, cause is falling into pieces
Fells like i'm drowning can't go back to you, but i'm going back to you
Cause i was hoping you could save me you could save me but you won't even try
You promise me you never leave me, you never leave me
But i guess you never really meant it
But i guess you never really meant it




But i guess you never really meant it
Oh baby you say you love me was it's just a lie to accompany you every night every morning

Overall Meaning

In "Promise," Ringgo 5 describes a tumultuous relationship where both parties are struggling. The line "it's been a hard days night for me, for you and me" suggests that both people are going through a difficult time. This is reinforced by the mention of "a couple bottle with a bit of trouble," indicating that alcohol is being used to cope. Despite the difficulties, there is an undeniable feeling between the two of them. However, the singer is torn because they feel like they are drowning in the relationship and can't go back to their partner - yet they still feel compelled to return to them. The repeated line "you could save me but you won't even try" suggests that the partner is not doing enough to help the relationship or the singer.


The chorus of the song is focused on the broken promise of never leaving. The singer is hurt and disappointed that their partner didn't live up to this promise, as they say "you never really meant it." The line "Oh baby you say you love me was it's just a lie to accompany you every night every morning" suggests that the partner may have just been saying what they thought the singer wanted to hear in order to keep the relationship going.


Overall, "Promise" is a sad but relatable song about the difficulties of relationships and broken promises.

[Verse 1]
It's been a hard days night for me
For you and me
A couple bottle with a bit of trouble
This night is undeniable
Hope that I can just turn away
Cause I'm falling into pieces
Feels like I'm drowning
Can't go back to you
But I'm going back to you

[Chorus]
Cause I was hoping you could save me
You could save me
But you won't even try
You promise me you never leave me
You never leave me
But I guess you never really meant it
But I guess you never really
I guess you never really meant it
But I guess you never really, I guess you never really

[Verse 2]
Oh baby you say you love me
Was it just a lie
To accompany you every night every morning
They say time heals all wounds
But why does it hurt every time we don't talk anymore

[Pre-Chorus]
Baby I need you here with me
Stay with me
Don't leave me

Baby I need you here with me
Stay with me
Don't leave me

[Chorus]
Cause I was hoping you could save me
You could save me
But you won't even try
You promise me you never leave me
You never leave me
But I guess you never really meant it
But I guess you never really
I guess you never really meant it
But I guess you never really, I guess you never really

[Bridge: Rishad]
There's one thing that I want from you
It's just little time for both us two
You shut me down, like an angel
You cut me right, every angle
Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Miami, Chicago, Amsterdam to Tokyo, Jakarta
Where babe
I'll take you there just both of us
Just two of us, uh yeah
But I guess it doesn't matter anymore
What's the point this anymore
And I wrote this song for you
Hope you listen to the radio

[Chorus]
Cause I was hoping you could save me
You could save me
But you won't even try
You promise me you never leave me
You never leave me
But I guess you never really meant it
But I guess you never really
I guess you never really meant it

But I guess you never really
I guess you never really meant it
But I guess you never really
I guess you never really meant it
But I guess you never really, I guess you never really meant it
