promise me the moon

promise the sky

promise me this world

and the afterlife

you can shower me

with riches

temptation's fine

but it cannot feed

the hunger inside



[chorus]



you can promise me anything

promise me anything

you can promise me anything

but please give me love

sweet love



promise me the truth

no compromise

promise me nothing

if you can't oblige

you can shower me

with riches

temptation's fine

but it cannot feed

the hunger inside



repeat chorus



promise me one thing

promise you'll try

a little more love

and we'll get by



repeat chorus twice
