Lyrics Promises - Joan Armatrading

Promises

Come to me baby
Stay by my side
Don’t try to fake it
With little white lies
I want you to be always by my side
The burden of proof is for you to deny
I found you out
Now let’s do whatever it takes
For us to survive
Promise love that never dies
Paint a blue and perfect sky
Come to me baby
Stay by my side
Where we stand now
Is our default line
I want you to be always by my side
We’ve both made mistakes
But we’re human and so
As much as we think we’re infallible
We get it wrong sometimes
Promise love that never dies
Paint a blue and perfect sky
Everything changes
As much as we wish
There is nothing that remains
And this feeling
That we’re both searching for
It’s elusive like chasing the clouds
Still I want you to
Come to me baby
Promise love that never dies
Paint a blue and perfect sky
Promise love that never dies
Paint a blue and perfect sky
