Promises
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
We forgot all our promises
And only keep some of the easiest
I confess I do
Make believe
However small the possibility
But sometimes tripped up by reality
Formality it seems
Now I found
Having come the long way round
I am closer - closer than before
Here and now is all that it's about
Let's use it or we'll lose it
Go and ask anybody
They will all say the same - everyone
Love is contagious
We are part of a chain
History
We could live our life from history
But there's no future in a memory
You'll see - my love
Oh, there's no future in a memory
You'll see - my love
Now I found
Having come the long way round
I am closer - closer than before
Here and now is all that it's about
Let's use it or we'll lose it
Go and ask anybody
They will all say the same - everyone
Love is contagious
We are part of a chain
Go and ask anybody
They will all say the same - everyone
Love is contagious
We are part of a chain
You'll see - my love
Go and ask anybody
They will all say the same - everyone
Love is contagious
We are part of a chain
