It looks so easy
To be walking close behind
Did you find it easy
To be needed all the time

And I'm looking at you now
As if you knew the way
But I cannot reach you
You're far away

It doesn't seem so easy
Like the river that flows upstream

Promises, don't give me promises
Don't give me promises when all you do is lie
No promises when all I do is cry

You look for the questions
From the minds of those who care
You'll find them waiting
And you'll learn that we can share

Losing the love, been looking out for freedom
You've been losing our love along the way

Promises, don't give me promises
Don't give me promises when all you do is lie
No promises when all I do is cry

Promises, don't give me promises
Don't give me promises when all you do is lie
No promises when all I do is cry
