I'm all through with promises, promises now
|
I don't know how I got the nerve to walk out
|
If I shout, remember I feel free
|
Now I can look at myself and be proud
|
I'm laughing out loud
|
|
Oh, promises, promises
|
This is where those promises, promises end
|
I don't pretend that what was wrong can be right
|
Every night I sleep now, no more lies
|
Things that I promised myself fell apart
|
But I found my heart
|
|
Oh, promises, their kind of promises, can just destroy a life
|
Oh, promises, those kind of promises, take all the joy from life
|
Oh, promises, promises, my kind of promises
|
Can lead to joy and hope and love
|
Yes, love!!
|
|
Every night I sleep now, no more lies
|
Things that I promised myself fell apart
|
But I found my heart
|
|
Oh, promises, their kind of promises can just destroy a life
|
Oh, promises, those kind of promises take all the joy from life
|
Oh, promises, promises, my kind of promises
|
Can lead to joy and hope and love
|
Yes, love!!
