Never again
Isn't that what you said
You've been through
this before and you swore
this time you'd think
with your head
No one
would ever have you again
And if takin'
was gonna get done
You'd decide where and when
Just when you think
you got it down
Your heart securely
tied and bound
They whisper
Promises in the dark
Armed and ready
You fought love
battles in the night
But too many opponents
made you weary of the fight
Blinded by passion
You foolishly let someone in
All the warnings went off
in your head
Still you had to give in
Just when you think
you got it down
Resistance nowhere
to be found
They whisper
Promises in the dark
But promises
You know what they're for
It sounds so convincing
But you heard it before
'Cause talk is cheap
and you gotta be sure
And so you put up your guard
And you try to be hard
But your heart says
try again
You desperately search
for a way
You conquer the fear
No line of attack
has been planned
to fight back the tears
Where brave and restless
dreams are both won and lost
On the edge is where it seems
It's well worth the cost
Just when you think
you got it down
Your heart in pieces
on the ground
They whisper
Promises in the
dar-r-r-r-k
