Promises

[Verse 1]
I could play your dirty game
Spin a web around your name
Keep my feelings for myself, yeah
And I could look into your eyes
Tell you all those pretty lies
But I don't play those games so well

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause if I take a risk, gotta risk it all
I believe that even if I fall
Never ever let love bring me down
I will never turn around

[Chorus]
Promises made for fools
But I crushed my heart upon it
Promise and trusted in you
'Cause I was away upon it
Are promises made of dreams
Or something a lot more solid?
'Cause some of them tear at the seams
But I bet my life upon it

[Verse 2]
I used to hide beneath my skin
I watched the others dive right in
Scared of shattering my dreams, yeah
I've been waiting on the edge
Static running through my hair
Finally I dived in deep

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause if I take a risk, gotta risk it all
I believe that even if I fall
Never ever let love bring me down
I will never turn around

[Chorus]
Promises made for fools
But I crushed my heart upon it
Promise and trusted in you
'Cause I was away upon it
Are promises made of dreams
Or something a lot more solid?
'Cause some of them tear at the seams
But I bet my life upon it

[Bridge]
Oh no, good intentions
It's sending my heart in the wrong direction
All my good intentions
Always sending my heart in the wrong direction
All those good intentions
People say: "girl, you better change direction"
All my good intentions
I guess I'll better get some self-protection

[Chorus]
Promises made for fools
But I crushed my heart upon it
Promise and trusted in you
'Cause I was away upon it
Are promises made of dreams
Or something a lot more solid?
'Cause some of them tear at the seams
But I bet my life upon it

[Chorus]
Promises made for fools
But I crushed my heart upon it
Promise and trusted in you
'Cause I was away upon it
Are promises made of dreams
Or something a lot more solid?
'Cause some of them tear at the seams
But I bet my life upon it

[Outro]
Oh no, good intentions
It's sending my heart in the wrong direction
All my good intentions
Always sending my heart in the wrong direction
All those good intentions
People say: "girl, you better change direction"
All my good intentions
I guess I'll better get some self-protection
