Down by Law - Promises lyrics

rate me

there was a day

when we made promises

and there was a day

when we kept them

we were like one

no one could stop us

we ruled the world

from the throne you made

promises -- we were young and free

promises -- how it ought to be

promises -- but somewhere it changed

promises -- nothing remains the same

now when we were tight

you made such promises

the world was alright

and we believed them

but now it's through

and your stock is down

put out the fuse

the sparks are on the ground

promises -- we were young and free

promises -- how it ought to be

promises -- but somewhere it changed

promises -- nothing remains the same

hurrah for yesterday

long live yesterday

drink a toast

to yesterday

we got the most

out of yesterday

we were like one

we were like one

promises -- we were young and free

promises -- how it ought to be

promises -- but somewhere it changed

promises -- nothing remains the same

hurrah for yesterday

long live yesterday

drink a toast

to yesterday

we got the most

out of yesterday
