Promises Promises

Dionne Warwick

Promises, promises

I'm all through with promises, promises now

I don't know how I got the nerve to walk out

If I shout, remember I feel free

Now I can look at myself and be proud

I'm laughing out loud



Oh, promises, promises

This is where those promises, promises end

I don't pretend that what was wrong can be right

Every night I sleep now, no more lies

Things that I promised myself fell apart

But I found my heart



Oh, promises, their kind of promises, can just destroy a life

Oh, promises, those kind of promises, take all the joy from life

Oh, promises, promises, my kind of promises

Can lead to joy and hope and love

Yes, love!!







Every night I sleep now, no more lies

Things that I promised myself fell apart

But I found my heart



Oh, promises, their kind of promises can just destroy a life

Oh, promises, those kind of promises take all the joy from life

Oh, promises, promises, my kind of promises

Can lead to joy and hope and love

Yes, love!!
