Are You Gonna Keep Your Word? |
«Sometimes it gets so thick in here,» she said |
Clearing the plates from another power lunch |
Then she laughed at herself and told me what was good |
No ring, no coy disguise, but world-weary innocence in her eyes |
Said, «Every false move you make will be withstood» |
«Lies, like rust, decay |
Is your heart that way? |
Vows, like prayers, are heard |
Are you gonna keep your word? |
And when in time I pledged heart and soul |
She said, „Love is patient |
But you must know that feelings come and go Like these sainted patrons“ |
Lies, like rust, decay |
Is your heart that way? |
And good intentions are no guarantee, just look at me |
Are you gonna keep your word?» |
When the seige begins |
When the thieves break in |
Will you stand your ground? |
And when you fight the wars on foreign soil |
Will I rest assured? |
Are you gonna keep your word? |
And as we watch our children sleep |
I take her hand, I feel her ring |
I have been faithful, but I know my heart is not above deceit |
Lies, like rust, decay |
Is your heart that way? |
Vows, like prayers, are heard |
Will I keep my word? |
Lies, little lies come back to haunt you like petty fraud |
Vows are made forever before God |
And I will always keep my word to you |
