Never again, isn't that what you said?   You've been through this before and you swore this time   You'd think with your head   No one, would ever have you again   And if takin' was gonna get done you decide where and when      Just when you think you got it down   Your heart securely tied and bound   They whisper, promises in the dark      Armed and ready you fought love battles in the night   Too many opponents made you weary of the fight   Blinded by passion, you foolishly let someone in   All the warnings went off in your head still had to give in      Just when you think you got it down   Resistance nowhere to be found   They whisper, promises in the dark      Promises, you know what they're for   It sounds so convincing but you heard it before   'Cause talk is cheap and you gotta be sure   And so you put up your guard   And you try to be hard but your heart says try again      You desperately search for a way to conquer the fear   No line of attack has been planned to fight back the tears   Where brave and restless dreams are both won and lost   On the edge is where it seems it's well worth the cost      Just when you think you got it down   Your heart's in pieces on the ground   They whisper, promises in the dark
