Song Description
Often in life, we make promises we don't keep. This song is about a person in a relationship, calling her partner on just that. Sort of a hands on hip, loving approach to saying, "Hey, don't pull that crap on me-- cause I know you-- All Too Well"

Lyrics
Come on darling, don't be telling me these stories
Come on darling, don't me making me the fool
Don't you know by now how deeply I love you?
You should know by now how truly I believe in you
Sweet and rough and pure and final
The words that you are telling me, yet
When we danced eye to eye
Seems you were saying such a different story
In a whisper you promised me
That you would always be there for me
And I so wanted to believe
So wanted to believe
But I know you my love
I know you so well
All too well
Come on darling, don't go promising the moon to me
Come on darling, please don't set me up for a fall
We both know by now how many rounds we've played this game
We should know by now, the ending always is the sam
In a whisper you'll promise me
That you will always be there for me
Be there for me
But I know you, my love
I know you so well
All too well, all too well
Pirate of a thousand years
Captor of my hopes and fears
I know you, my love
I know you so well
I know you, my love
All too well
I know you, my love
I know you so well
I know you, my love
All too well, all too well, all too well
