Fiona Apple - Never Is A Promise lyrics

rate me

You'll never see

The courage I know

Its colors' richness won't

Appear within your view

I'll never glow

The way that you glow

Your presence dominates

The judgements made on you

But as the scenery grows

I see in different lights

The shades and shadows

Undulate in my perception

My feelings swell and stretch

I see from greater heights

I understand what I am still

Too proud to mention

To you

You'll say you understand

But you don't understand

You'll say you'd never

Give up seeing eye to eye

But never is a promise

And you can't afford to lie

You'll never touch

These things that I hold

The skin of my emotions

Lies beneath my own

You'll never feel

The heat of this soul

My fever burns me deeper

Than I've ever shown

To you

You'll say

Don't fear your dreams

It's easier than it seems

You'll say you'd never

Let me fall from hopes so high

But never is a promise

And you can't afford to lie

You'll never live

The life that I live

I'll never live the life

That wakes me in the night

You'll never hear

The message I give

Youy'll say it looks as though

I might give up this fight

But as the scenery grows

I see in different lights

The shades and shadows

Undulate in my perception

My feelings swell and stretch

I see from greater heights

I realise what I am now

Too smart to mention

To you

You'll say you understand

You'll never understand

I'll say I'll never wake up

Knowing how or why

I don't know what

To believe in

You won't know who I am

You'll say I need appeasing

When I start to cry

But never is a promise

And I'll never need a lie
