The Promise Lyrics

Zucchero The Promise

Main street lights, mornin' 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 tumblin' down

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

Only a moment in time
The prayers of all the people will fly
Oh with the city tonight
I'll wait for the sound of your voice to sing
"Love comes and it's alright", that's all

Only 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
