Promises — текст песни (Steve Harley)

True romance in the dead ot´f the night

The breeze in the air, it almost glistens

And the earth is a glorious sight

When nobody speaks and nobody listens

Youre gonna have a night to remember

Youre gonna be real, live, hot contender



Sleeptalking in the dead of the nigth

Cold coffee in the china

Friends talking in the dead of the night

Promises, its always the way

Promises, its always the way



Running off by the light of the moon

The hand on your heart is almost hidden

You try from your favourite room

To get at the truth but its forbidden

Youve never been a shoulder to cry on

The lovers pledge is not to be relied on



Sleeptalking in the dead of the nigth

Cold coffee in the china

Friends talking in the dead of the night

Promises, its always the way

Promises, its always the way



Old friends in a sepia frame

The proud photograph, the truth it measures

Is why in humanitys name

You take from the wounded personal treasures

Youve never been a frien to depend on

Youve never understood my view of heaven



Sleeptalking in the dead of the nigth

Cold coffee in the china

Friends talking in the dead of the night

Promises, its always the way

Promises, its always the way



Repeat first verse
