Promises Lyrics - The Violet Flame - Erasure

It's a quarter-to-twelve 

And ain't nobody answering 

Fell under your spell 

But ooh, that feeling is fleeting 

I've had my fill 

And I just don't wanna fight any more 

I know the stories well 

And I just can't take any more 

Keep your promises 

I just need somebody to be there 

(The will inside me is breaking) 

And if we can't be honest 

Baby don't you see we won't get nowhere 

(We're on our own)

So won't you keep those promises 

I just need someone to rely on 

(The will inside me is breaking) 

'Cause if we're not solid 

Everything will change 

Nothing will remain of the both of us 

Promises, promises, only promises 

Whatever happened to 

That tender side I saw in you 

What you made me do 

Those things, woah 

And I wonder how those vowels we made 

Ooh they evaporate 

And like the rain at night it came 

And then it was gone 

Photos 

Keep your promises 

I just need somebody to be there 

(The will inside me is breaking) 

And if we can't be honest 

Baby don't you see we won't get nowhere 

(We're on our own) 

So won't you keep those promises 

I just need someone to rely on 

(The will inside me is breaking) 

'Cause if we're not solid 

Everything will change 

Nothing will remain of the both of us 

Promises, promises, only promises 

Promises, promises, only promises 

Keep your promises 

I just need somebody to be there 

(The will inside me is breaking) 

And if we can't be honest 

Baby don't you see we won't get nowhere 

(We're on our own) 

So won't you keep those promises 

I just need someone to rely on 

'Cause if we're not solid 

Everything will change 

Nothing will remain of the both of us
