Promises

Savage Garden

Savage Garden

Well, don't you know I need a little indulgence?
Listen to the hunter becoming hunted
Every day, there's a million advances
Don't be too forceful, you'll ruin your chances

Well, don't you know that time is a broken glass
That splinters against the wall
But the picture's coming back now, baby
And I wanna take it all

Don't go making all these promises you know you cannot keep
There's a time to play the king and a time to be a thief
'Cause if you're making all these promises you know you cannot keep
You know time will be the thief and your fallen king will end up alone

So let you're body move a little bit closer
Silent, like the sound preceeding a cyclone
Don't you know that a powerful thinking
Can be a force you don't wanna relinquish?

Well, don't you know that
They say that hanging on will justify the wait?
But patience and elated wisdom
Don't share a common phrase

Don't go making all these promises you know you cannot keep
There's a time to play the king and a time to be a thief
'Cause if you're making all these promises you know you cannot keep
You know time will be the thief and your fallen king will end up alone

Well, I'm only hanging on for what goes down (ooooh, yeah)
I'm floating high and my feet don't touch the ground
I'd take advantage, but I can't see through this charade
So don't you, don't go make it harder than Hell (don't go making promises, don't go making promises)
'Cause when it comes down to the making, you better be damn sure you can take it, hey baby (don't go making promises, don't go making promises)

Ooooooh
Ooooooh...
Oh, baby
Don't you know, baby?

Don't go making all these promises you know you cannot keep
There's a time to play the king and a time to be a thief
'Cause if you're making all these promises you know you cannot keep
You know time will be the thief and your fallen king will end up alone

Don't go making all these promises you know you cannot keep
There's a time to play the king and a time to be a thief
'Cause if you're making all these promises you know you cannot keep
You know time will be the thief and your fallen king will end up

A fool, a fool, a lonely sorry fool
Oh, baby, I told you, baby, yeah
