No Promises

I will make no promises I cannot keep
Because I could die when I'm fast asleep
I cannot tell you that everything's ok
When I don't know if I'll see you another day

Why make me lie like a twisted religion?
To let you down when your hope has risen?
I will never speak of a broken promise
I will not be your liar nor the slightest pompous

Do not look at me with your watering eyes
I cannot look at you and tell these deceiving lies
I will make no promises I cannot keep
Because I could die when I'm fast asleep
I cannot tell you that everything's ok
When I don't know if I'll see you another day
