savage garden - promises
well dont you know i need a little indulgence?
listen to the hunter becoming hunted
every day theres a million advances
dont be too forceful, youll ruin your chances
well dont you know that time is a broken glass
that splinters against the wall?
but the picture is coming back now baby,
and i want to take it all
dont go making all these promises
you know you cannot keep
theres a time to play a king
and a time to be the thief
cause if youre making all these promises
you know you cannot keep
you know time will be the thief
and your fallen king will end up alone
so let youre body move a little bit closer
silent like the sound proceeding a cyclone
dont you know that powerful thinking
can be a force you dont want to relinquish?
well dont you know that,
they say that hanging on will justify the wait?
but patience and elated wisdom
dont share a common phrase
dont go making all these promises
you know you cannot keep
theres a time to play a king
and a time to be the thief
cause if youre making all these promises
you know you cannot keep
you know time will be the thief
and your fallen king will end up alone
well, im only hanging on for what goes down
im floating high and my feet dont touch the ground
id take advantage but i cant see through this charade
so dont you, dont go make it harder than hell
(dont go making promises)
(dont go making promises)
cause when it comes down to the making
you better be damned sure you can take it
hey baby
(dont go making promises)
(dont go making promises)
(oh baby,dont you know baby)
well dont go making all these promises
you know you cannot keep
theres a time to play a king
and a time to be a thief
cause if your making all these promises
you know you cannot keep
you know time will be the thief
and your fallen king will end up alone
and your fallen king will end up...
a fool, a fool, a lonely sorry fool
oh baby, cause i told you baby
end
