Promises
Travis Bretzer Lyrics

What can I do
The singer is wondering what action he can take

To show you
He wants to prove something to the other person

That I can't
He wants to show that he is capable

And I'm away
The singer is presently not there

Cause' when you're down
The other person is feeling low

And you'll keep around
The person is still around despite their predicament

You should know
The singer wants to make something known to the other person

There I'll be there
The singer promises to be there for the other person

To keep, my promises
The singer wants to keep his promises to the other person

Keep, keep
He makes a focused emphasis on keeping promises in the following lines

My promises truth
The singer wants to keep his promises but also maintain honesty

What can I say
The singer is now considering his words instead of actions

To take this blue
He wants to provide comfort to the other person who is feeling down

Clouds away
The singer wants to lift the other person's mood

Day after day
The singer wants this comfort to be consistent and long-lasting

Down, down, down
The other person is feeling very low and is repeating down to highlight this fact

That I'll be there
The singer is promising once again to be there for the other person

To keep my promises
He wants to remind the other person of his earlier promise

Keep keep my promises
He emphasizes again his determination to keep promises

Keep my promises truth
He also wants to do this while staying honest with the other person

Keep my promises
The singer repeats his promise to keep his promises

Keep my promises truth
He emphasizes once again that he wants to maintain his commitment, but also his honesty

Keep my promises
The singer repeats his promise for a final time

Keep my promises truth
He emphasizes again in his honesty-driven promise
