promises, promises

i'm all through with promises

promises now

i don't know how i got the nerve to walk out

if i shout

remember i feel free

now i can look at myself and be proud

i'm laughing out loud

oh

promises

promises

this is where those promises

promises end

i don't pretend that what was wrong can be right

every night i sleep now

no more lies

things that i promised myself fell apart

but i found my heart

oh

promises

their kind of promises

can just destroy a life

oh

promises

those kind of promises

take all the joy from life

oh

promises

promises

my kind of promises

can lead to joy and hope and love

yes

love!

every night i sleep now

oh

promises

those kind of promises take all the joy from life

promises

promises

my kind of promises

can lead to joy and hope and love
