The Promise

The Promise

Eyeliners (The)
(album: No Apologies)

If you need a friend,
Don´t look to a stranger,
You know in the end, I´ll always be there.
And when you´re in doubt,
And when you´re in danger,
Take a look all around,
And I´ll be there.

I´m sorry, but I´m just thinking of the right words to say.
I know they don´t sound the way I planned them to be.
But if you´ll wait around a while,
I´ll make you fall for me, I promise, I promise you I will.

When your day is through, and so is your temper,
You know what to do, I´m gonna always be there.
Sometimes if I shout, it´s not what´s intended.
These words just come out, with no gripe to bear.

I´m sorry, but I´m just thinking of the right words to say.
I know they don´t sound the way I planned them to be.
But if you´ll wait around a while,
I´ll make you fall for me, I promise, I promise you I will.
