Promise

Well, you know that I want your loving But my logic tells me that it ain't never gonna happen And then my defenses say I didn't want it anyway But you know sometimes I'm a liar Could you ever want me to love you? Could you ever want me to care? Disregard my nervousness Please ignore my vacant stares Just what I've been through Is nothing like where I'm going to Give me some sign to pursue a promise And you're unhappy And this is only a guess Do you know what it's like to hate When it's way down deep inside? Oh, God, I hate what's been done to my life I could rule the pain, I could rule the night Or would it ruin my salvation? Ruin my mind, rules your pains, rulers of the night Ruin your salvation, ruin your mind You know that I want your loving But Mr. Logic, Mr. Logic tells me it ain't never gonna happen And then my defenses say, well, I didn't want it anyway But you know sometimes I'm a liar Could you ever want me to love you? Could you ever want me to care? Disregard my nervousness Ple-please ignore my vacant stares Just what I've been through Is nothing like where I'm going to Give me some sign to pursue a promise A promise And you're unhappy And you're unhappy And you're unhappy And you're unhappy This is only a guess
