Promise/Broken Songtext
von Prince

Stop, ah
A broken promise, eh
Prince D, ah

I love you (I love you)
I love you (oh I love you)
I really love you (I really love you)
Eh, eh eh eh


Once upon a time
Oh oh, there was our love
This is a story
I never expected I′d tell
We made a promise
And even tied a lock
By the promising bridge
Just like those love birds
In romantic movies
Oh oh the way they do
And now a few years down the road
Our journey seems to fade
Oh, I never expected this
Oh, why? why? why? why?
Why did you make this promise to me?
Baby, eh eh
For you to break in one night
Why?
(You promised to live with me, forever
Why did you break it?)

Why did you make this promise to me? (oh, why?)
Why did you make this promise to me? (why?)
Why did you make this promise to me? (comeon, why?)
Why did you promise to die with me?
(You promised to die with me)
For you later to break in one night
For you later to break in one night

Despite my efforts
Oh, she just turned me down
Despite my efforts
Oh, she just turned me down
Oh, she promised
She promised to die with me
Oh, she promised
She promised to stay with me

(She promised to die with me)I loved you
Oh I loved you
(Oh oh, I really loved you)
(I did) eh


Oh she left me (she left me)
For sure she sold our love
Oh she left me
She gave her love to another man
Oh she left me
Oh she broke my heart
(She really broke my heart)
(Come on I really loved you)
Eh eh
(I never expected you could break
My heart in this way)
Yeh eh eh eh, ah
(I really trusted you with my heart)
Even where you go there's no love

I loved you, loved you
Oh, I loved you
Baby where you go there′s no love (no, eh)
Even where you go there's no love
You'll never find true love (no no no)
You′ll never find true love
Like the one I′ve in my heart for you
(Even where you go there's no love)
Eh, even where you go there′s no love
There's no love, there′s no love
There's no love
Oh oh, I loved you mama, eh eh eh
It′s a broken promise to me, oh oh
You made a broken promise to me, eh eh
