Promise

Promise

Promise Me

From the mountain top

from heavens clouds

and craggy rock

Promise Me

From oceans deep

the whales their solace

aspire to keep

Promise Me

From desert plains

with fearful winds

that hear my pain

Promise Me

From the woodland glade

shimmering leaves

beginning to fade

Promise Me

From the battlefield

where lives are claimed

and widows made

Promise Me

When children sleep

lost innocence

and their mothers weep

Promise Me then

At the gates of hell

you sold your soul

so here you'll dwell
