Judith Hanlon - A Promise lyrics
The sages and wise ones say life is effemoral, That things come and go, and that's just how it is. They tell us that love larely goes on forever. The future won't find us just as this day is. Death makes its visit as sure as the sunrise. Doors always close on some work and some friends. Triumphs and heartaches are life's strange bedfellows. Chapters start fresh, but they always must end. But a promise, a promise, oh, what's in a promise? It weaves through all changes intent on its goal. But a promise, a promise, oh, what's in a promise? A vow is a fire to warm human souls. Let us sing life's song in full orchestration. Harmonies simply can't be played alone. With doubles and couplets and joint single voices, A duet of formed and a covenant born. Someday when joy's light does not grace the morning, The greyness of platitudes invade the day, Promise to then sing the song that we now sing, And seek not to part but to find how to stay. A promise, a promise, oh, what's in a promise? A vow is a fire to warm human souls. A promise, a promise, what is in a promise? So mundane, such ecstacy, so earth-bound, such spirit, A prison that sets you free, the substance of future, So human, so holy, and the faith to believe. A promise, a promise, oh, what's in a promise? So human, so holy, the faith to believe. The faith to believe. What's in a promise? (five times) The faith to believe. |
