A Promise Lyrics - Levellers

This place looks familiar, they always are, 

Came here again to meet you, forgotten star, 

What's that can I hear you talking? What's that you say? 

Every cloud has a silver lining, come on mate! 

And I love it when you whisper to me... 

There's always a promise in the dreams that you think, 

There's always a promise in this last drink, 

This last drink, 

We've met so many places, we've always danced, 

Then every morning after, left in a trance, 

You know if we keep on meeting you'll take my soul, 

Let's make this our last greeting, cause I must go, 

And I love it when you whisper to me... 

There's always a promise in the dreams that you think, 

There's always a promise in this last drink, 

This last drink, 

This time I really mean it, it's over now, 

Last night we both went too far - you know how, 

Today I'm left staring the thousand yards, 

Today I know you promised the house of cards, 

And I love it when you whisper to me... 

There's always a promise in the dreams that you think, 

There's always a promise in this last drink, 

This last drink,
