PAT BENATAR - Promises In The Dark lyrics

rate me

Never again, isn't that what you said? <br>You've been through this before<br>An' you swore this time you'd think with your head<br>No one, would ever have you again<br>And if takin' was gonna get done<br>You'd decide where and when<br>Just when you think you got it down<br>Your heart securely tied and bound<br>They whisper, promises in the dark<br><br>Armed and ready, you fought love battles in the night<br>But too many opponents made you weary of the fight<br>Blinded by passion, you foolishly let someone in<br>All the warnings went off in your head<br>Still you had to give in<br><br>Just when you think you got it down<br>Resistance nowhere to be found<br>They whisper, promises in the dark<br><br>But promises, you know what they're for<br>It sounds so convincing, but you heard it before<br>Cause talk is cheap and you gotta be sure<br>And so you put up your guard<br>And you try to be hard<br>But your heart says try again<br><br>You desperately search for a way to conquer the fear<br>No line of attack has been planned to fight back the tears<br>Where brave and restless dreams are both won and lost<br>On the edge is where it seems it's well worth the cost<br>Just when you think you got it down<br>Your heart in pieces on the ground<br>They whisper, promises in the -- dark
