"I Promise" lyrics

"I Promise"

When a samurai cries it's like an unloved child
And when a sad child sighs you can hear the sound of
lovers cry - lovers cry

Wait until the dark for the night dog's bark
Where the ravens beat their wings on broken promises -
on broken promises

I promise

When a promise lies it's like a friend that dies
When a flame has died all you can do is sigh
Oh sigh sigh oh sigh sigh

And when the samurais die oh loveless child
And the nightingale sighs at the saddened
blackened sky
you will hear the sound of lovers cry
On broken promises

I promise
