Promises — текст песни (Cranberries, The)

You better belive I`m coming
You better believe what I say
You better hold on to your promises
Because you bet, you`ll get what you deserve
She`s going to leave him over
She`s gonna take her love away
So much for your eternal vows, well
It does not matter anyway

Why can`t you stay here awhile
Stay here awhile
Stay with me

Oh, all the promises we made
All the meaningless and empty words
I prayed, prayed, prayed
Oh, all the promises we broke
All the meaningless and empty words
I spoke, spoke, spoke

What of all the things that you taught me
What of all the things that you`d say
What of all your prophetic preaching
You`re just throwing it all away
Maybe we should burn the house down
Have ourselves another fight
Leave the cobwebs in the closet
`Cos tearing them out is just not right

Why can`t you stay here awhile
Stay here awhile
Stay with me, oh oh
