SONG OF NO PROMISES

Promises of love and laughter
Promises of ever after
Promises you fail to keep
Promises they cut so deep.

Ne'er again for fickle words
Will I open up my heart
I'll live my days in a happy haze
For as long as I've got.

No promises are the best promises
They never hurt you so
No promises are the best promises
They'll love me best I know.

I'll take what life has to give to me
And when it’s time to go
I'll thank my stars for the heavenly showers
And the dreams that touched me so.

No promises are the best promises
With them you just can't lose
No promises are the best promises
They're the best that I can choose.
