Promise
Les Anges de la Nuit Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I have some words to say
Our trust is gone from nights away
I want to know what is true
Don't want you to walk away, I feel blue

Why you promised me,
That you'll be there for me,
Why your promised me,
That you'll be there for me,
That you'll be there for me,
When I feel like a bird, crying in the winter,
Flying from the hunter

We don't have anytime to waste
We don't have any wine to taste

I want you to know that you can count on me
I want to be there for you, let it be, you promised me
Why you promised me,
That you'll be there for me,
Why your promised me,
That you'll be there for me,
That you'll be there for me,




When I feel like a bird, crying in the winter,
Flying from the hunter
