She swept away the glass,
It broke upon the floor.
She wept for all the times,
No more, no more, no more.
Promises were broken,
For all the times, she wept,
No more, no more, no more,
Promises will be kept.
Promises will be kept,
My love and, even as she wept,
No more, no more, no more,
The broken glass was swept.
