Promise Of You Lyrics

Promise of you

 It sleeps in the air

 The air that I breathe 

 And I know that it's true 

 Don't have to convince myself to believe

 What secrets sleep in the heart of a man

 So much love wasted Slip right through my hands

 See it in the eyes of the lonely

 As they make their weary way

 Shimmer in the eyes of longing 

 I hear it say

 Promise of you

 It sleeps in the air

 The air that I breathe 

 And I know that it's true 

 Don't have to convince myself to believe

 To believe...

 

 What secrets sleep in the heart of the night

 Dreams of salvation

 Slipping out of sight

 In the shimmering moments of twilight

 Closing up the shine

 Whisper on the wind of a rescue

 Savior in time

 Promise of you

 It sleeps in the air

 The air that I breathe

 And I know that it's true

 Don't have to convince myself to believe

 All this time

 I've been fighting my own private war

 All this time

 You were the peace I was looking for
