Lyrics Lucy Kaplansky

Lucy Kaplansky

Promise Me

Let me sit beside you, take a good long look at you

I'll memorize you, so I always find you

Smiling at me in my rear view

In the broken white line that takes me from you

Promise me you'll wait for me

And kiss me one more time

Give me all your lonely nights

I'll keep 'em here with mine

I'll keep 'em here with mine

If I could stay in one place I know what I'd do

I'd make my living in love with you

But I work on these stages and I live everywhere

And it's everywhere that I want you

Promise me you'll wait for me

And kiss me one more time

Give me all your lonely nights

I'll keep 'em here with mine

I'll keep 'em here with mine

Listen for me when I'm away

I'll be singing to you

Listen for me when I'm away

I'll be singing to you

It feels like I just got home yesterday

Now I'm packed and I'm ready with nothing to say

I'm counting the white lines, the measures of road time

They're broken in pieces like my heart today

Promise me you'll wait for me

And kiss me one more time

Give me all your lonely nights

I'll keep 'em here with mine

I'll keep 'em here with mine
