Promises — текст песни (Randy Travis)

(Randy Travis/John Lindley)

Cheap perfume and painted faces,
Fallen angles fill the places
Where I go when my troubles pull me down
All the lies I know they`ll tell me,
And the time that they will sell me
For a while I`ll be the biggest man in town
Back at home in bed she`s crying,
For her love for me is dying
But she`ll pry I make it safely through the night
When the mornin` sun starts showing,
To her bedside I`ll be going
And she`ll hold me while I face the morning light

And I`ll make promises
Promises to change
I`ll make her promises swear I`ll rearrange
And I`ll start giving all the love she needs
If only she will stay
Once again she`ll reasure me and
I believe her love will cure me
And I`ll fall asleep with tears on my face
Lord I know she`s just a woman
And her love can`t last forever
And someday soon I know she`ll
Leave without a trace
For broken` promises
Will tear her dreams apart
Just token promises will someday break her heart
And for the last time she`ll hold me when I cry
And while I`m sleeping
She`ll quietly say goodbye
