Hall & Oates
"Promise Ain't Enough"


Don't wanna open your heart
You're afraid from the start
That a new love's gonna let you down
There is something you should know
Before you give up and go
I don' believe in the run around
I just want to define myself
And show you how l feel

[Chorus:]
If a promise ain't enough
Then a touch says everything
Got to hold you in my arms
Till you feel what I mean
Know that my heart just teIls me what to say
But words can only prove so much
If a promise ain't enough

Hold onto my love
Though my words can't describe
How I'm feeling all inside
L'm not afraid to take time
Cause I know you'lI find
That l'm real and my touch is true
It's taken a lifetime to find my heart
And I give it all to you

[Chorus]

It took a lifetime to find what I want
I won't let it get away

[Chorus]
