Violent Femmes - Promise Lyrics
Yknow that I want your lovingBut my logic tells me that it aint never gonna happenAnd then my defensed say I didt want it anywayBut you know sometimes Im a lierCould you ever want me to love youCould you ever want me to careDisregard my nervousnessPlease ignore my vacant staresCause just what Ive been thruIs nothing like where Im going toGive me some sign to persueA promiseAnd your unhappyThis is only a guessDo you know what its like to hateWhen its way down deep insideOh God I hate whats been done to my lifeI could rule the painI could rule the nightOr would I ruin my salvationRuin my mind rules your painsRulers of the nightRuin your salvationRuin yor mindGordon gano: guitar, lead vocalBrian ritchie: acoustic bass guitar, vocalVictor delorenzo: snare drum and trancephone, vocalsEngineers: glen l. loribecki and john tannerRecorded at castle recording company, lake geneva, wi, july 1982Produced by mark van hecke gorno music reprinted with permission
