[Walking On Cars - Promises lyrics]
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ohh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ohh
You'd better believe I'm comin'
You'd better believe what I say
You'd better hold on to your promises
Oh you'll get what you deserve
She's going to leave him over
She's gonna take her love away
So much for your eternal vows
It doesn't matter anyway
Why can't you stay here a while?
For a while, stay with me
Oh all of the promises we made
All the meaningless and empty words
I prayed, I prayed, I prayed
Oh-whoa-oh, all of the promises we broke
All the meaningless and empty words
I spoke, I spoke, I spoke
What of all the things you taught me?
What of all the things you'd say?
What of all your prophetic preaching?
You're just throwing it all away
Maybe we should burn the house down
Have ourselves another fight
Leave the cobwebs in the closet
'Cause tearing them out is just not right
Why can't you stay here a while?
For a while, stay with me
Oh all of the promises we made
All the meaningless and empty words
I prayed, I prayed, I prayed
Oh-whoa-oh, all of the promises we broke
All the meaningless and empty words
I spoke, I spoke, I spoke
Ah ah ah
I prayed, I prayed, I prayed
Ah ah ah
Whoa-oh, whoa-oh, whoa-oh
Whoa-oh, whoa-oh, whoa-oh
Whoa-oh, whoa-oh, whoa-oh
Whoa-oh, whoa-oh, whoa-oh
Oh all of the promises we made
All the meaningless and empty words
I prayed, I prayed, I prayed
Oh-whoa-oh, all of the promises we broke
All the meaningless and empty words
I spoke, I spoke, I spoke
Yeah
Ah ah ah
I prayed, I prayed, I prayed
Ah ah ah
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ohh
You'd better believe I'm comin'
You'd better believe what I say
You'd better hold on to your promises
Oh you'll get what you deserve
She's going to leave him over
She's gonna take her love away
So much for your eternal vows
It doesn't matter anyway
Why can't you stay here a while?
For a while, stay with me
Oh all of the promises we made
All the meaningless and empty words
I prayed, I prayed, I prayed
Oh-whoa-oh, all of the promises we broke
All the meaningless and empty words
I spoke, I spoke, I spoke
What of all the things you taught me?
What of all the things you'd say?
What of all your prophetic preaching?
You're just throwing it all away
Maybe we should burn the house down
Have ourselves another fight
Leave the cobwebs in the closet
'Cause tearing them out is just not right
Why can't you stay here a while?
For a while, stay with me
Oh all of the promises we made
All the meaningless and empty words
I prayed, I prayed, I prayed
Oh-whoa-oh, all of the promises we broke
All the meaningless and empty words
I spoke, I spoke, I spoke
Ah ah ah
I prayed, I prayed, I prayed
Ah ah ah
Whoa-oh, whoa-oh, whoa-oh
Whoa-oh, whoa-oh, whoa-oh
Whoa-oh, whoa-oh, whoa-oh
Whoa-oh, whoa-oh, whoa-oh
Oh all of the promises we made
All the meaningless and empty words
I prayed, I prayed, I prayed
Oh-whoa-oh, all of the promises we broke
All the meaningless and empty words
I spoke, I spoke, I spoke
Yeah
Ah ah ah
I prayed, I prayed, I prayed
Ah ah ah
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
