No Promises Songtext
von Icehouse

(Oh)

A winter palace from the Arabian Nights
White waves on an ocean
Gems from a golden age

Life in your new world
Turning ′round and 'round
Making some sense
Where there′s no sense at all

Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na
No promises, but if you should fall

Stars die in the silence of Arabian Nights
Wind washes the seasons
In these days of a golden age

Life in your new world
Turning 'round and 'round
Making some sense
Where there′s no sense at all


Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na
No promises, but if you should fall

I could give you more than just the shape of things
Break every word, begin it all again
Your name on a white sheet
Pure lace shot with passion
But as love lies bleeding in your hands

Heaven sends you no promises of Arabian Nights
No white waves on an ocean
No gems from a golden age

Life in your new world
Turning ′round and 'round
So make some sense
Where there′s no sense at all

Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na (oh)
Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na
I give you no promises, but if you should fall
No promises, but if you should fall
You fall


Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na
No promises, but if you should fall

Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na (ooh)
No promises, but if you should fall
You fall

Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na (ooh)

Life in your new world
As it turns 'round and ′round

Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na
