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.
Wishing never got us what we needed
So we waited for our salvation to arrive
Then it took everything that we loved
And it let us alive
I hear you call
And I promise to you
One day, some day
The pain will go
Solitary movement meant for two
Can you hear the loneliness in silent cries
If you take everyting that I love
Leave me to die
I hear you call
And I promise to you
One day, some day
The pain will go
If you take everything that I love
And you leave here,
Leave me alive
If you take everything thet I love
And I'm standing here
Waiting to die
I hear you call
And I promise to you
One day, some day
The pain will go
