[Intro]
Looking through the backyard of my life
Time to sweep the fallen leaves away

[Bridge]
Like the sun that rises every day
We can chase the dark clouds from the sky

[Verse 1]
I gave my promise to you, girl
I don't wanna take it back
You and me, side by side
We know how to change the world
That is why I gave my promise to you, girl

[Verse 2]
Hey, why wait another day?
That won't get us anywhere
All the time that it takes
To repair this brave old world will be ours
I gave my promise to you, girl

[Bridge]
Every single second of our lives
We can use to chase the clouds away
[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]
Well, there's no more barkin' up the tree
No more howling at the moon
They won't see you and I
Diving for the deepest buck
That is why I gave my promise to you, girl

[Outro]
(Ooh, ooh)
(Ooh-ooh)
Looking through the backyard of my life
Time to sweep the fallen leaves away
