Promise of you
|
It sleeps in the air
|
The air that I breathe
|
And I know that it's true
|
Don't have to convince myself to believe
|
What secrets sleep in the heart of a man
|
So much love wasted Slip right through my hands
|
See it in the eyes of the lonely
|
As they make their weary way
|
Shimmer in the eyes of longing
|
I hear it say
|
Promise of you
|
It sleeps in the air
|
The air that I breathe
|
And I know that it's true
|
Don't have to convince myself to believe
|
To believe...
|
|
What secrets sleep in the heart of the night
|
Dreams of salvation
|
Slipping out of sight
|
In the shimmering moments of twilight
|
Closing up the shine
|
Whisper on the wind of a rescue
|
Savior in time
|
Promise of you
|
It sleeps in the air
|
The air that I breathe
|
And I know that it's true
|
Don't have to convince myself to believe
|
All this time
|
I've been fighting my own private war
|
All this time
|
You were the peace I was looking for
|
