the promise

• tracy chapman'in "du bi sigara daha iceyim oyle yatayim" sarkisi...
  
  if you wait for me then i'll come for you
  although i've traveled far
  i always hold a place for you in my heart
  if you think of me, if you miss me once in awhile
  then i'll return to you
  i'll return and fill that space in your heart
  remembering
  your touch
  your kiss
  your warm embrace
  i'll find my way back to you
  if you'll be waiting
  if you dream of me like i dream of you
  in a place that's warm and dark
  in a place where i can feel the beating of your heart
  
  remembering
  your touch
  your kiss
  your warm embrace
  i'll find my way back to you
  if you'll be waiting
  i've longed for you and i have desired
  to see your face your smile
  to be with you wherever you are
  
  remembering
  your touch
  your kiss
  your warm embrace
  i'll find my way back to you
  if you'll be waiting
  i've longed for you and i have desired
  to see your face, your smile
  to be with you wherever you are
  
  remembering
  your touch
  your kiss
  your warm embrace
  i'll find my way back to you
  please say you'll be waiting
  
  together again
  it would feel so good to be
  in your arms
  where all my journeys end
  if you can make a promise if it's one that you can keep, i vow to come for you
  if you wait for me and say you'll hold
  a place for me in your heart.
• bir within temptation parcasi^*
  
  on behalf of her love
  she no longer sleeps
  life no longer had meaning
  nothing to make her stay
  she sold her soul away
  
  i held you tight to me
  but you slipped away
  you promised to return to me
  and i believed, i believed
  
  after the night he died
  i wept my tears until they dried
  but the pain stayed the same
  i didn't want him to die all in vain
  i made a promise to revenge his soul in time
  i'll make them bleed at my feet
  
  sometimes i wonder
  could i have known their true intentions?
  as the pain stayed the same
  i'm going to haunt them down all the way
  i made a promise to revenge his soul in time
  one by one they were surprised

• johnny works in a factory and billy works downtown
  terry works in a rock and roll band
  lookin' for that million-dollar sound i got a little job down in darlington but some nights i don't go
  some nights i go to the drive-in, or some nights i stay home
  i followed that dream just like those guys do up on the screen
  and i drive a challenger down route 9 through the dead ends and all the bad scenes
  when the promise was broken, i cashed in a few of my dreams
  
  well now i built that challenger by myself
  but i needed money and so i sold it
  i lived a secret i should'a kept to myself
  but i got drunk one night and i told it
  all my life i fought this fight
  the fight that no man can ever win
  every day it just gets harder to live
  this dream i'm believing in thunder road, oh baby you were so right thunder road, there's somethin' dyin' on the highway tonight
  
  i won big once and i hit the coast
  but somehow i paid the big cost
  inside i felt like i was carryin' the broken spirits
  of all the other ones who lost
  when the promise is broken you go on living
  but it steals something from down in your soul
  like when the truth is spoken and it don't make no difference
  somethin' in your heart goes cold
  i followed that dream through the southwestern flats
  that dead ends in two-bit bars
  and when the promise was broken i was far away from home
  sleepin' in the backseat of a borrowed car
  
  thunder road, for the lost lovers and all the fixed games
  thunder road, for the tires rushing by in the rain thunder road, billy and me we'd always say thunder road, we were gonna take it all and throw it all away

• "heaven hide" kisminin hastasi oldugum arcadia sarkisi. tek albumleri so red the rose'daki tum digfer parcalar gibi saglam bir sarki :
  
  those tears on a gaping voice
  who's stretching arms match the hunger of mine
  there lips will they never join
  but always draw me closer and further entwined
  
  with a promise dealer understand all freedoms fade away
  to a point of view where many different pathways meet
  and we're standing on this precipice with nothing much to gain save
  but the deep blue screams of falling dreams with our next move
  
  heaven hide your eyes
  heaven's eyes will never dry
  
  the shades of a thousand steel
  come flashing by my face in the fury of war
  in desolation and abandoned fields
  the hungry make their stand when they'll stand for no more
  
  hear the passion in their voices see the heaven in their eyes
  their hopes and schemes are waiting dreams of less than paradise
  and sometimes we make promises we never mean to keep
  for blackmail is the only deal a promise dealer sees
  
  heaven hide your eyes
  heaven's eyes will never dry

  how time will heal
  make me forget
  you promised me
  time will heal
  make me forget
  you promised me
  love will save us all
  and time will heal
  you promised me...
  how love will save
  make me forget
  you promised me
  love will save
  make me forget
  you promised me
  time will heal us all
  and love will save
  you promised me...
  i trusted you
  i wanted your words
  believed in you
  i needed your words
  time will heal make me forget
  and love will save us all
  you promised me another wish
  another way
  you promised me another dream
  another day
  you promised me another time
  you promised me another life
  you promised me..
  so i swallowed the shame and i waited
  i buried the blame and i waited
  choked back years of memories...
  i pushed down the
  pain and i waited
  trying to forget...
  you promised me another wish
  another way
  you promised me another dream
  another day
  you promised me another time
  you promised me...
  another lie
  oh you promised me...
  you promised me... you promised me...
  and i waited... and i waited... and i waited...
  and i'm still waiting...
