Promises (As The Years Go By)
|
|
Stay awhile, when I'm not alone
|
I forget all the anger in me
|
Kiss a tear when the hammer falls
|
They're holding me here in Never ending circles
|
I can still remember summer madness
|
I can taste the perfume on your cheek
|
The heat is overcome by coldness , iron
|
Consoling words are insignificant
|
Say you'll pray
|
|
Justify the actions
|
These are days of the mob-rule
|
Sharp tongue, curfew
|
When the mind is in solitary confinement -
|
Makes the mood that breaks you
|
There's a spirit seeking liberation
|
Here's a fire with a hungry heart
|
If I listen maybe time will tell me
|
The reasons why we're torn apart
|
|
As the years go by
|
Don't make any false promises
|
As the years go by
|
Say you'll pray
|
|
Here the silence is too loud
|
In a steel barred jail on the other side
|
We invented the differences
|
That weaved the web with which we lied
|
Caught in the middle of a cold war zone
|
I left my lover in a far off place
|
She'll kiss a tear when the hammer's falling
|
And wipe the darkness from my face
|
|
As the years go by
|
Don't make any false promises
|
As the years go by
|
Just say you'll pray
|
|
