The air is filled with promises
Sweet love, tender, heartfelt
Desire, strong, real, fire

Who am I to resist?

The vision of you

A force stronger than time
heartbeat, soulbeat, so sweet
The pull of destiny, true

Caught in it's web

Don't want to resist

Let go of that wheel for good
Follow the tide, don't run
Yours forever, no doubt

Promises that are kept are the best.

I can truthfully say that I made some promises, very few, that I didn't keep. It helps from having regrets for things undone.
