Promises - Randy Travis

作词：John Lindley/Randy Travis

Cheap perfume and painted faces

Fallen angles fill the places

Where I go when my troubles pull me down

All the lies I know they'll tell me

And the time that they will sell me

For a while I'll be the biggest man in town

Back at home in bed she's crying

For her love for me is dying

But she'll pry I make it safely

through the night

When the mornin' sun starts showing

To her bedside I'll be going

And she'll hold me

while I face the morning light

And I'll make promises

Promises to change

I'll make her promises

swear I'll rearrange

And I'll start giving

all the love she needs

If only she will stay

Once again she'll reasure me

and I believe her love will cure me

And I'll fall asleep with tears on my face

Lord I know she's just a woman

And her love can't last forever

And someday soon I know she'll

Leave without a trace

For broken' promises

Will tear her dreams apart

Just token promises

will someday break her heart

And for the last time

she'll hold me when I cry

And while I'm sleeping

She'll quietly say

goodbye
