Promises Lyrics by Joe Dassin

Intégrale 11 CD / CD 11 / The Guitar Don’t Lie

0

I don't care if you never come home
And I don't mind if you just
Keep on rowing away on a distant sea
'Cause I don't love you and you don't love me

You cause a commotion when you came to town
You give 'em a smile and they melt
And your lovers and friends is all good and fine
But I don't like yours and you don't like mine

La la, la la la la la
La la, la la la la la

I don't care what you do at night
I don't, I don't care how you get your delights
I leave you alone, I just let you be
I don't love you and you don't love me

I got a problem. Can you relate?
I got a woman calling love hate
We madе a vow, said we'd always be friends
How could wе know that promises end?

La la, la la la la la
La la, la la la la la

I tried to love you for years upon years
You just wouldn't take me for real
But it's time that you saw what I want you to see
And I'd still love you if you'd just love me

I got a problem. Can you relate?
I got a woman calling love hate
We made a vow, said we'd always be friends
How could we know that promises end?

La la, la la la la la
La la, la la la la la
