Promise

Son I see it in your eyes

There is a burden you cannot hide

But in their arms you feel so alive

And in a moment you're cast aside

All lines have broken and we need you to hold on

Your eyes have opened but you've got to go on

I will comfort you

I will stay with you

It's a promise not forgotten

Now I hear you in my mind

There is a story you bring to life

And I will bow gently by your feet

But tread softly you tread on my dreams

You're crying all these tears but they mean to leave you dry

Still fighting all these years about the same old things

We wished we never had

The vision softly fades

But there's a light that still remains

And in these walls I feel your sadness wane

But in a moment you'll feel no pain

All lines have broken but we need you to hold on

Your eyes have opened, but you've got to go on

I will comfort you

I will sing to you

It's a promise not forgotten

Come on baby let's light the sun rise

Come on baby let's light the night
