Jan Johnston - Don't Make Promises lyrics

I don't need much, not really

Just walkin' and talkin' and bein' free just being me

And I think about nothing really

Just silly things………

Say it mustn't touch me, it mustn't reach

It's another road it's not for keeps

Too much time has past between

Sands of time have covered me

*chorus*

Don't make promises

You won't keep, life is long

And the hurting's deep

Don't make promises

You won't keep.

You paint the picture perfect

With past just green and things I need

And it seems my search can never end

For peace of mind and truth of friends

And over glens that reads it all

Sorry but the curtains fall

and nothing spoken and nothing said

and no one smiled but somethings dead

*chorus*

Don't tell lies, don't disguise, call me….

I'm lyin' on my colored bed

As I turn the sky is red

Colors knock me to the floor

Nothings changed and there once more

I couldn't change what's gone before

Its not to be so closed the door

Winds have changed and blow once more

Time can heal this hurting soul

*chorus*

Don't make promises…..you'll never keep
