Promises, promises 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 can breathe

Now I can look at myself and be proud

I'm laughing out loud



Promises, promises this is where

Those promises, promises end

I won'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, promises

Can take all the joy from life

Oh promises, promises

Can just destroy your life

Oh promises, promises

My kind of promises

Can lead to joy and hope and love

Yes love!



(Instrumental break)



Oh promises, promises

Can take all the joy from life

Oh promises, promises

Can just destroy your life

Oh promises, promises

My kind of promises

Can to lead to joy and hope and love

Yes love!
