Promise
You came awake and you were shaking
Lying safe inside my arms
In the cradle of a dream just before my sleep was gone
And I will keep the words you whispered there forever
I know someone got you first
I guess I should know better
But I'm pulled out of my bed by the ringing telephone
It's my brother on the line, he says, 'Wake your lazy bones!
The peninsula is shining in the West
You should run into this day and forget about the rest'

If there's reconcilliation to be found
If i'm searching for a reason to be proud
I will find it, I will find it, I will find it
I will make you a promise and stand firm behind it

They say that beautiful dies faster than the things we always see
Everyone's afraid of dying, everybody except me
'Cos that peninsula will shine that way forever
I will wait for you my love, and we will shine that way together

If there's reconcilliation to be found...
