[hometext] => Love Don't Make No Promises
[bodytext] => I'm dancin' with the shadows In the dark Almost blind or just half Outta my mind, I've been warned you'll come As a spark of the light But I ain't told you're gonna Go out quite as fast. Are you here to save me And show me the way I should obey to make The world bent over me Or are you here to show me That the love has left me Walkin' out that door with No promise to come back. Mommy used to tell me that Love don't make no promises, And you'll never hold what's Never really belonged to you Let it go and if it returns Back to you again it's yours And if it don't, so that means It's never been really yours. Cos remember, that love Don't make no promises. First I was afraid Of the sincerity in you, Cos no one ever Looked at me quite as you do You told me: Baby, I'd take you wherever you want, And I was sayin' No more words, just let's go. I wasn't afraid to get burnt So naive and foolish, Because I wanted To share this eternity with you I felt so fearless as I was able To climb the mountains Cos you were the one To give me this vibe. Mommy used to tell me that Love don't make no promises, And you'll never hold what's Never really belonged to you Let it go and if it returns Back to you again it's yours And if it don't, so that means It's never been really yours. Cos remember, that love Don't make no promises. The dream has thawn In the time circulation, Returned to reality, Cleared from my sleep, Cos I've forgotten The basis of an affection, Love doesn't make no promises, That's the way it is. It takes away as quickly As well as it gives And now you're standin' Semi-hidden into shade I see the pain reflexion On your pretty face You're hurtin' Cos you came here To take away the last thing that I have You came here to take your love away. Mommy used to tell me that Love don't make no promises, And you'll never hold what's Never really belonged to you Let it go and if it returns Back to you again it's yours And if it don't, so that means It's never been really yours. Cos remember, that love Don't make no promises.
