The Promise (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

If you need a friend
Don’t look to a stranger
You know in the end
I’ll always be there

And when you’re in doubt
And when you’re in danger
Take a look all around
And I’ll be there

I’m sorry, but I’m just thinking of the right words to say
(I promise)
I know they don’t sound the way I planned them to be
(I promise)
But if you’ll wait around a while
I’ll make you fall for me
I promise, I promise you I will

When your day is through
And so is your temper
You know what to do
I’m gonna always be there

Sometimes if I shout
It’s not what’s intended
These words just come out
With no gripe to bear

I’m sorry, but I’m just thinking of the right words to say
(I promise)
I know they don’t sound the way I planned them to be
(I promise)
But if you’ll wait around a while
I’ll make you fall for me
I promise, I promise you

I’m sorry, but I’m just thinking of the right words to say
(I promise)
I know they don’t sound the way I planned them to be
(I promise)
And if I had to walk the world
I’d make you fall for me
I promise, I promise you I will

I gotta tell ya, I need to tell ya, I gotta tell ya
I gotta tell yaa

I’m sorry, but I’m just thinking of the right words to say
(I promise)
I know they don’t sound the way I planned them to be
(I promise)
But if you’ll wait around a while
I’ll make you fall for me
I promise, I promise you

I’m sorry, but I’m just thinking of the right words to say
(I promise)
I know they don’t sound the way I planned them to be
(I promise)
And if I had to walk the world
I’d make you fall for me
I promise, I promise you I will
I will
I will
I will

The Promise (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

If you wait for me then I’ll come for you
Although I’ve traveled far
I always hold a place for you in my heart
If you think of me, If you miss me once in awhile
Then I’ll return to you
I’ll return and fill that space in your heart

Remembering
Your touch
Your kiss
Your warm embrace
I’ll find my way back to you
If you’ll be waiting
If you dream of me like I dream of you
In a place that’s warm and dark
In a place where I can feel the beating of your heart

Remembering
Your touch
Your kiss
Your warm embrace
I’ll find my way back to you
If you’ll be waiting
I’ve longed for you and I have desired
To see your face your smile
To be with you wherever you are

Remembering
Your touch
Your kiss
Your warm embrace
I’ll find my way back to you
If you’ll be waiting
I’ve longed for you and I have desired
To see your face, your smile
To be with you wherever you are

Remembering
Your touch
Your kiss
Your warm embrace
I’ll find my way back to you
Please say you’ll be waiting

Together again
It would feel so good to be
In your arms
Where all my journeys end
If you can make a promise If it’s one that you can keep, I vow to come for you
If you wait for me and say you’ll hold
A place for me in your heart.

The Promise (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

Hey, what I meant to say
Let’s get lost and find our way
And chance might shine on us, today

We fight we win we fight we lose we fight
We get lost and call it a night
Our mouths will tire before our devils do
There’s a promise hidden in my blood
In the name of everything I love

I will draw the crescent down
And set it in your crown

Remember what you said
Better to run than play dead
Here’s our chance to prove it
Let’s just do it
I have a dream and we are looking back and laughing
And there’s a promise hidden in my blood
In the name of everything I love
I will draw the crescent down
And set it in your crown

The Promise (Letra)

Written by phil sillas, stephanie lewis

I know that lately
Things have been so hard
And looking out
Through your broken heart
All you can see is dark
And lonely days ahead
But remember jesus said

Chorus
He knows every star in the sky
Every single tear that you cry
His love is here faithful and alive
I know that this world can be cold
In his arms you’re never alone
That’s his promise to you and i

When hope had disappeared
And you heart aches
You might not recognize
The touch of grace
But on the other side
Of every dying dream
His love is waiting patiently

Chorus

With every angel there’s a love
That never leaves your side
His love is deeper than the ocean
Or a mountain high
You’ve got to know
There’s hope in your heart
And if you listen with your heart
I know you’ll hear him say
You are my child and i am with you
Each and everyday
He is the one who knows your soul

Chorus

That’s the promise for you and i

The Promise (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

The world is full of people,
Some are trying to lend a hand
To help us learn to recognize,
So we can understand
That life holds many secrets,
They stand before our doors…
Admit the ones you’re hiding now,
So you may know them all…

Twelve vibrations long ago are the cause
Of me and mine, and you and yours.
Just let them be, and the doors will open wide
To paintings on the rocks, gigantic stonehenge blocks,
The pyramids, and the sphinx,
The temples are the links
To lead us through our past, so we might find
Ourselves at last…

The first book ever written
Was a symbol of our home,
It came from solar heaven,
Where our life wave was born.
We came in ships a-singing
The praise of one above,
Like children in a garden,
Our hearts were full of love…

Ezekiel’s wheels seem to be turning up now…
The pillar of fire, a luminous cloud,
I know i’ve seen them,
And they do make a sound…
They filled my soul with "music of the spheres"
It’s been my goal for nine long years
To write this song…so i can say…
Exactly what i believe is coming down…

Oh sweet loving music, i hear your tender call.
To me, you are a river, pure love your waterfall.
A tide forever bathing a rough and rocky shore…
Please take us on a journey, so we can learn some more.

I dream by day…i dream by night
Through coloured rays, i feel your might…
And now i claim my right…a son of god,
Eternal life……the promise of your rainbow light.

The Promise (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

You gave me back my soul again by showin’ me
The laughter and the wonder in your eyes
Saved me from the shuttered man i used to be
Opened up the windows of my life

And the happiness you’ve given me for lovin’ you
Is sweeter love and deeper every day
I can’t stop the changes that you’re growin’ through
Or someone new from stealin’ you away

Chorus:
So darlin’ when it’s time you can spread your wings
And i’ll set you free – to fly away – and it’s ok
Cause darlin’ time changes everything
But it won’t change me
I love you – oh… i love you

Inside of me you’ll always be my valentine
I pray your freedom makes your dreams come through
As long as there’s a heartbeat in this soul of mine
You’ll know there’s someone so in love with you

Chorus:
So darlin’ when it’s time you can spread your wings
And i’ll set you free – to fly away – and it’s ok
Cause darlin’ time changes everything
But it won’t change me
I love you – oh… i love you

The calmest, it’s not a threat, it’s a promise, yeah

Verse one: foxy brown

Hold it down, boogie fox, you bitch niggaz strip
You web niggaz dead on, get fucked and wet on
Shitted on, i want a low, fuckin wit don
Like ronald, thirty inch, fortistrano
Mill-ion, sophisticado, ill movado
The firm’s baby girl, my fam be my whole world
It figures, cause she’d die for them niggaz
Doe or die status, ma-ma be the baddest
From brook-lyn to queensbrige, it’s pure havoc, havoc
We on a job, fuckin wit mobb
They had the drop on em, the slanted eyes peep the rocks on em
He kinda jig, and he bubblin big
Dig a hole holdin, so’s watch his cash start foldin
And bet though, twenty g craps wet though
Nas you shoulda seen the nigga jet though
Had it on blast, shoulda seen me shakin all of my ass
Of course me, i threw the gas, thug nigga turnin real saucy
Firm lay low i’ma play if you say so
So stay close like i’m bout to twist babe bro
I laid it down, went a couple of rounds, and tried to flaunt him
I threw it on him, now he’s right where i want him

Verse two: havoc

Got my mind in crooked ways
Saturated up in alize, you ain’t a threat nigga
So get big nigga baby girl crossin over send your soldiers
Toucha fuck a rusher, this world is colder
Like a, day in december 25th son i got gift
From monkey, motherfuckers, that wanna rip
Get your shit split, pushed back, grill that ass don’t look back
Respect this, like a lexus repo man i took that
Five cats to death dog, like shop i’m gonna set more
Handwritten obituaries vocal through my chords
Lights out… just pull the nines out
Let’s find out, pointin shook ones, they pointin dimes out
It ain’t hard, straight up and down, you get your deck pulled
My hand is full, of fake niggaz i position
Expensive intuition fuck a rap competition
Gat expo, get a grip and never let go
The tet blows, the rapper noyd said, "that ass is wet though"
Triple p, paranoid plus petrol
Scared to death, put the pedal to the metal
Ghetto connections, audi 4, take your section
You only get once chance, ain’t no second guessin
We blessin, peepin your style, them never testin
Lessons of life walk the night witcha weapon

*chorus reversed, havoc takes the main and foxy joins in
Starts with "son it’s the drama" instead*

Verse three: foxy brown

Fox boogs, whattup, they get the jack, what the fuck
Lucked up, the thug nigga took a l nigga bitched up
The snake niggaz slither like jake, ain’t all great
Ain’t no threat dunn, fuckin with them niggaz that’s fake
They got though, pushin a 850 auto, they sayin nada
They know the firm gettin nachoes
Cheddar like whatever, i see money frontin in the land
I got him, i got me a fuck and his man
Murderous mami, i threw the kiss, he was hist’
Oooh, shoulda seen that ill roley on his wrist

You’ll be straight with his eight, and dead him on all his heron
Realistically, papi, is history, mami

I’m fuckin wit fours to cock this, let me plot this
Ice he nuttin nice, if he front, take his life
At the shark bar, fuckin wit duke, him and his mans
Really frontin boo, got him the red velour filas too
Here come my niggaz now in the black hummer stuntin
Yeah that’s the firm, jig the fuck up and body sumpin
Whattup now duke, his eyes cried from the inside
I seen all of his fears cause he about to fry
He looked at me, through his right eye, was like
"mami why?" i felt fucked up, i can’t lie
He was shook, ‘mega opened his chest, ain’t nuttin left
But the sky blue land, and that niggaz last breath
Last breath…

*chorus, foxy alone all parts* (repeat 2x)

Yeah, it’s not a threat

The Promise (Letra)

Those tears on a gaping voice
Who’s stretching arms match the hunger of mine
There lips will they never join
But always draw me closer and further entwined

With a promise dealer understand all freedoms fade away
To a point of view where many different pathways meet
And we’re standing on this precipice with nothing much to save
But the deep blue screams of falling dreams with our next move

Heaven hide your eyes (heaven hide your eyes)
Heaven’s eyes will never dry (heaven’s eyes will never dry)

The shades of a thousand steel
Come flashing by my face in the fury of war
In desolation and abandoned fields
The hungry make their stand when they’ll stand for no more

Hear the passion in their voices see the heaven in their eyes
Their hopes and schemes are waiting dreams of less than paradise
And sometimes we make promises we never mean to keep
For blackmail is the only deal a promise dealer sees

How time will heal
Make me forget
You promised me
Time will heal
Make me forget
You promised me
Love will save us all
And time will heal
You promised me…

How love will save
Make me forget
You promised me
Love will save
Make me forget
You promised me
Time will heal us all
And love will save
You promised me…

I trusted you
I wanted your words
Believed in you
I needed your words
Time will heal
Make me forget
And love will save us all
You promised me another wish
Another way
You promised me another dream
Another day
You promised me another time
You promised me another life
You promised me…

So I swallowed the shame and I waited
I buried the blame and I waited
Choked back years of memories…
I pushed down the pain and I waited
Trying to forget…

You promised me another wish
Another way
You promised me another dream
Another day
You promised me another time
You promised me…
Another lie
Oh you promised me…
You promised me…you promised me
And I waited…and I waited…and I waited…
And I’m still waiting…

Johnny works in a factory and billy works downtown
Terry works in a rock’n’roll band
Looking for that million-dollar sound
Me i don’t do nothing much,
I spend a lot of time alone
Some nights i go to the drive-in,
And some night i stay home
I followed that dream
Just like those guys do way up on the screen
Drove a chopped up challenger
Down route 9
Through the dead ends and all the bad scenes
And when the promise was broken
I cashed in a few of my dream

Well, i built that challenger by myself
But i needed money and so i sold it
I lived a secret i should’ve kept to myself
But i got drunk one night and i told it
All my life i fought that fight
The one that no man can never win
And every day it just gets harder
To live the dream i’m believing in

Thunder road …
I stay up every morning until it turns light
Thunder road …
There’s something dying out on the highway tonight

Well now i won big once and i hit the coast,
Oh but somehow i paid the big cost
Inside i felt like i was carrying
The broken spirits of all the other ones who lost
When the promise is broken you go on living
But man it takes something from down in your soul
Like when the truth is spoken, it don’t make no
Difference
Finally something in your heart turns cold
Yeah i followed that dream, me and some guysin the dead ends and all the
Two-bit bars
The night the promise was broken
I was drunk and far away from home,
Sleeping with a stranger
In the back seat of a borrowed car

Thunder road …
Here’s one for the lost lovers and all the fixed games
Thunder road …
Here’s one for the tires rushing by in the rain
Thunder road …
I remember when me and billy, we’d always say
Thunder road …
We were gonna take it all, and throw it all away

The Promise (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

On behalf of her love
She no longer sleeps
Life no longer had meaning
Nothing to make her stay
She sold her soul away

I held you tight to me
But you slipped away
You promised to return to me
And I believed, I believed

After the night he died
I wept my tears until they dried
But the pain stayed the same
I didn’t want him to die all in vain
I made a promise to revenge his soul in time
I’ll make them bleed at my feet

Sometimes I wonder
Could I have known their true intentions?
As the pain stayed the same
I’m going to haunt them down all the way
I made a promise to revenge his soul in time
One by one they were surprised

The Promise (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

Electric chair didn’t burn a hair
And the newspaperman asked why
And while the warden explain in great detail
The newsman looked in the sky
"i’m sure!", he said, "if you look a little deeper
For something in his life
We could understand the reason why
He reached out for a knife."

Oooh! what happened to the promise?
Oooh! what happened to the one we knew?

So, onto a a train the newspaperman rode
Down to the southern lands
To find out about a child long gone
Turned into a lightning man.

Chorus:
Oooh! what happened to the promise?
Oooh! what happened to the one we knew?
Oooh! what happened to the promise?
Oooh! what happened to the heart so true.

"some of them make it through", she said
"some of them never do, and one of them
Got lost in time — that child of mine
Oh, i loved that child of mine!"

Arriving in a country town
With a notepad in his hand
He spoke to the mother and the father
And a friend and a teacher and a preacher man
They all recalled a regular boy chewing gim
And playing in the sand
Nothing could explain how he became
A lonely lightning man
And when the coffin came
On the southbound train
And the old folks shuffled by
The one they came to bury
Was not very heavy, just a child lost in time

Chorus

What happens to the clear blue eye
When it enters the forest?
Does anybody know where the little one goes?
What happens to the child in time?

— some of them make it through
— some of them never do
— some of them are lost and saved
— some of them find their way
Oooh — hold on to the promise
We’re going to make it through my baby
We’re going to make it through my little darling
