Jarboe - The Never-Deserting Shadow lyrics

rate me

Give me your promise baby tell me true<br />

Give me your promise i will love you<br />

Give me your promise baby make it tonight<br />

Give me your promise tell me you're mine<br />

Superficiality comes in easily<br />

Protect now the inner sanctum<br />

Alone with myself i barely recognize<br />

Reasons for this occurrence<br />

And for this demise<br />

Superficiality comes in easily<br />

Protect now the inner sanctum<br />

But if with a mind that is calm and clean<br />

With him does bliss follow<br />

Mind is supreme all is creation of mind<br />

Like the never-deserting shadow<br />

"how many times will i ask this of you baby<br />

How will i make myself clear to you baby<br />

How many prayers will i offer tonight baby<br />

Through the soft veil of these hot lonely tears<br />

Baby ooooh...<br />

The never-deserting shadow<br />

The never-deserting shadow<br />

Give me your promise baby oooh tell me true<br />

Give me your promise i will love you<br />

Give me your promise baby make it tonight<br />

Give me your promise tell me you're mine<br />

Oooh the shadow, the never-deserting shadow<br />

The never-deserting shadow<br />
