The Promise (Album Version)

The Promise (Album Version) - Art Garfunkel

You were told to wait

There for love

Love said it's waiting for you

It told me I could say

I know it's never easy

Getting all dressed up

With no place to go

Helpful that's what

We're here for

All one together

Harmony gets melody

The orchestra gets

It's symphony

The continents gets

Seven seas

Boy gets girl

And all you got was me

With The Promise

I'd try to be honest

I'd like to give

You nothing to fear

Lovers get

I'm sorry

Music gets to keep a key

Children get to

Ride for free

Mind and body is

All you get of me

And The Promise I'd

Try to be honest

I'd like to give you

Nothing to fear

Nothing to fear
