Promises (feat. Joe L Barnes) - Maverick City Music

All the sorrow and the pain All the sacrifice in vain I was much too blind to see You make a loser out of me You put me down for oh so long While you sang your serpent's song The rest is history You can do no more to me I've been down so low Had nowhere left to go I could see it in your eyes All your promises were lies Promises and lies Your cut was quick and deep But then you thought you'd never need a friend But all things change, and tides must turn And you let all your bridges burn Too many fatal wounds to heal The rest is history You can do no more to me I've been down so low Had nowhere left to go I could see it in your eyes All your promises were lies Promises and lies

Let me know now Let me, let me know now Puttin' this drink in this potion give me a national high But you're stood on my passenger side I don't want no one else, no one else I don't need nobody Kiss you in my lobby I met you inside This time in my lobby Drink inside of my head Shame all in my game I just, so I can't Reason why I just can't, you know why I can't And everything you do can't be the reason why But I only want you for me, I'm selfish, babe Thoughts of you block out my memory Oh, and if I could I would, if I could help it But I can't help it, no Drop my pin, share location with nobody else but you, baby You know I go loco in it, I know what you need I promise that these promises'll be what you believe You will hear what you need, yeah I need way too much of you for me And it makes me act superficial over you, oh It's not you, it's just the things you do Oh, yeah, yeah I need way too much of you for me And it makes me act superficial over you, oh It's not you, it's just the things you do Oh, yeah, yeah I need way too much of you for me And it makes me act superficial over you, oh It's not you, it's just the things you do Oh, yeah, yeah Let me know now Let me, let me know now

I'm always left out stranded on the fence You came along, no ego, no pretense In the trance we danced and prayed for no tomorrow We were brash and we were bold, but we were right She knows how I'm feeling She banishes all my demons So easy, like breathing She bandages all my bleeding She knows how I love her We take it down undercover She gets me, she sees me I hope that she'll never leave me I hope that she'll never leave me I'm always left out chasing innocence You came along, you showed me what it meant In the daze we raced, yeah, dreaming of tomorrow We were brash and we were bold, but we were right And I reckon we can take our time (I reckon we can take our time) And I reckon we can go a while (I reckon we can go a while) And I'll be there at the borderline (I'll be there at the borderline) Cause I owe you all the best of me She knows how, I'm feeling She banishes all my demons So easy, like breathing She bandages all my bleeding She knows how I love her We take it down undercover She gets me, she sees me I hope that she'll never leave me (Oh-oh, ooh-ooh) I hope that she'll never leave me (Oh-oh, ooh-ooh) I hope that she'll never leave me (Never leave me, never leave me, never leave me) (Never leave me, never leave me, never leave me) She knows how I'm feeling She banishes all my demons So easy, like breathing She bandages all my bleeding She knows how I love her We take it down undercover She gets me, she sees me I hope that she'll never leave me
