The Promise lyrics

Duran Duran

Whose tears on a gaping voiceWhose stretching arms match the hunger of mineThese lips will they never joinBut always draw me closer and further entwinedWith a promise dealer understand all freedoms fade awayTo a point of view where many different pathways meetAnd we're standing on this precipice with nothing much to gain But the deep blue screams of falling dreams with our next moveHeaven hide your eyesHeaven's eyes will never dryThe shades of a thousand steelCome flashing by my face in the fury of warIn desolation and abandoned fieldsThe hungry make their stand when they'll stand for no moreHear the passion in their voices See the heaven in their eyesTheir hopes and schemes are waiting dreams of less than paradiseAnd sometimes we make promises we never mean to keepFor blackmail is the only deal a promise dealer seesHeaven hide your eyesHeaven's eyes will never dry
