promise the sky
promise me this world
and the afterlife
you can shower me
with riches
temptation's fine
but it cannot feed
the hunger inside

[chorus]

you can promise me anything
promise me anything
you can promise me anything
but please give me love
sweet love

promise me the truth
no compromise
promise me nothing
if you can't oblige
you can shower me
with riches
temptation's fine
but it cannot feed
the hunger inside

repeat chorus

promise me one thing
promise you'll try
a little more love
and we'll get by

repeat chorus twice
