PROMISES (Savage Garden) well don't you know i need a little indulgence listen to the hunter becoming hunted every day there's a million advances don't be too forceful you'll ruin your chances well don't you know that time is a broken glass that splinters against the wall but the picture is coming back now baby / and i want to take it all Chorus: don't go making all these promises you know you cannot keep there's a time to play a king and a time to be a thief cause if your making all these promises you know you cannot keep you know time will be the thief and your fallen king will end up alone so let your body move a little bit closer silent like the sound proceeding a cyclone don't you know that powerful thinking is a force you don't want to relinquish well don't you know that they say that hanging on will justify the wait / but patience and elated wisdom don't share a common phrase (Chorus) well i'm only hanging on for what goes down baby i'm floating high and my feet don't touch the ground i'd take advantage but i can't see through this charade so don't you don't you go make it harder than hell don't go making promises don't go making promises when it comes down to the making you better be damned sure you can take it hey baby don't go making promises don't go making promises cause if you're making all these promises you know you cannot keep there's a time to play a king and a time to be a theif cause if your making all these promises you know you cannot keep you know time will be the thief and your fallen king will end up a fool a fool a lonely sorry fool oh baby cause i told you baby
