Stone Soup: Promises lyrics

Stone Soup: Promises lyrics

Stone Soup

Promises

In the heart of the city night

To the beat of the struggle in life

She goes on - singing her song

Of the promise of love that we save

King of hearts

Just a game that he plays

Now she's on her own

A heart that's turned to stone

He just said it was all in fun

But he was playing

With a loaded gun

Promises

Ain't what they used to be

Promises don't mean what they used to mean

Crimes of passion on a city street

Same cafe now she's taking her seat in the dark

She plays her part

Played this scene so many times before

Through a clear glass

She stares at the door

As he takes her heart

He's tearing it apart

He just said it was all in fun

But he was playing

With a loaded gun

Promises...
