The Promise

Main streets lights, morning hours
Lead me down to quiet streets
Early traffic with it's radio songs
Someplace two rivers meet

Will you be in my life?
Kiss me in the shadows
Time, time, time's gonna keep the promise
It's alright, it's alright

Mercy falls on my sacred ground
Pretty woman cries but makes no sound
I am lost, it don't matter
If the paper house comes tumbling down

Gonna be in your life, standing in the shadows
Time, time, time's gonna make the days flow
It's alright, the promise
It's alright, the loveless

Hold me a moment in time
The prayers of all the people will fly
Over the city tonight

I'll wait for the sound of your voices
To sing
Love comes and it's alright, that's all

Hold me a moment in time
The prayers of all the people will fly
Blessing the city tonight

I'll wait for the sound of our voices
To sing
Love comes and it's alright, that's all

Believe me and it's alright, that's all
