Thank You For the Promises

Thank you for the promises we make

I know I can't complain

I think I did all right

No failures are in sight

Only now and then

I'd like to reminisce

Do you remember when

Even if we're angels we can't ask

To wander through the past

The future is our goal

The night is black as coal

If I could pay the price

I'd like to love you once

I'd love to love you twice

Thanks

We cannot say enough

The road is sometimes rough

But we can get along

The going will get tough

But we won't be afraid

Of the promises we made

Thank you for the promises you keep

When I am fast asleep

To be where we belong

Is all that I can ask

We can do it in the shade

As long as I have you

And the promises we made

Thank you for the promises we break

If you made a clean mistake

Well that's what love's about

No need to stand and shout

The truth is in your eyes

The answer lies within

No need to criticize

Thanks

For the promises at hand

The abuse that we must stand

Is often heaven sent

They may not pay the rent

You never can be sure

When promises get bent

Thank you for the promises that live

This is all that I can give

Forever in my mind

To leave the past behind

And seal it with a kiss

Forever in my soul

I will remember this
