Promises and Hearts

Thomas Jonathan "Stonewall" Jackson (January 21, 1824 – May 10, 1863) was a Confederate general during the American Civil War, and one of the best-known Confederate commanders after General Robert E. Lee. His military career includes the Valley Campaign of 1862 and his service as a corps commander in the Army of Northern Virginia under Robert E. Lee. Confederate pickets accidentally shot him at the Battle of Chancellorsville on May 2, 1863. The general survived with the loss of an arm to amputation, but died of complications from pneumonia eight days later. His death was a severe setback for the Confederacy, affecting not only its military prospects, but also the morale of its army and of the general public. more »

I made myself a promise I knew I couldn't keep
I promised me I wouldn't cry tonight before I sleep
But to think of how you've hurt me and it's more than I can take
Now I know that promises and hearts were made to break and break and break
Oh promises and hearts were made to break
Promises and hearts were made to be broken
But surely not mine at least I was a hopin'
But a hurtin' heart is something I can't learn to face
Now I see that promises and hearts were made to break and break and break
Oh promises and hearts were made to break
[ ac.guitar ]
I promised all of my neighbors no more crying late at night
I promised them I'd go to sleep things are gonna be alright
Then once again it's mem'ry time and my heart begins to ache
Now they know that promises and hearts were made to break and break and break
Oh promises and hearts were made to break
