Promise me that you will build me A sandcastle by the crashing blue The way I promise you that I will Kiss you amidst the clouds in the sky
Promise me that you will take me To your parents' house on your birthday The way I promise you that I will Take you to my grandmother's grave
Promise me that you will keep your promises Your fingers slowly undoing my mistakes My prayers overcoming your false steps This is my promise to you, I promise
Sweet, gentle soul Be not worried Storms come and go Journeys have their ends What you seek May not be seen now But what is loved May never be lost For the steps you take Will take you to Exactly where you need to be
The day is done And the time has come So there we are At my place Just a little messed up Your laughter fills the room While I lazily lie Over pillows and blankets All of a sudden You lean close to me And kiss me once We laugh at ourselves Because we know What kisses mean We are past The sweet words stage
Queen of the night Calling for her prey While drinking her sorrows Sweet words and kisses She will make you sing Like you never before Did she teach you well? Have you learned your lesson?
Devour me like your guiltless pleasure Do I fill up your energy like nothing else? Head straight to the midlands now If you have what it takes to take the wheel Then break the boundaries that you made Aren’t you a man of pride and dignity? Prove your worth to the passers-by Tell the kings and queens of old We are not meant for swan songs
