love made a promise

beached by the same tide when we met

caught in a storm when we came together

i never needed someone

like i needed you back then

i swear i believed it

i never lied to you

when i said what i said

but i think you know

it's the end of the story

you been.crying in your sleep

time is the judge

and tears are the jury

we got to make that bitter leap

love made a promise

love made a promise

time couldn't keep

we run from the truth

but we end up nowhere

and everyone knows

you can't run forever

seems that just wanting something

don't mean it's going to be

we played by the rules

but time's made liars

out of you and me

yeah

but i think you know

it's the end of the story

you been.crying in your sleep

time is the judge

and tears are the jury

we got to make that bitter leap

love made a promise

love made a promise

time couldn't keep

so we find another way

to get through another night

and we spend the whole night dreaming

another day we'll find a way

to make it all right

to make it all right

time is the judge

tears are the jury

we got to take that bitter leap

love made a promise

love made a promise

time couldn't keep

time couldn't keep

can't say we didn't try

can't say we didn't try
