Are You Gonna Keep Your Word?
"Sometimes it gets so thick in here," she saidClearing the plates from another power lunchThen she laughed at herself and told me what was goodNo ring, no coy disguise, but world-weary innocence in her eyesSaid, "Every false move you make will be withstood""Lies, like rust, decayIs your heart that way?Vows, like prayers, are heardAre you gonna keep your word?And when in time I pledged heart and soulShe said, "Love is patientBut you must know that feelings come and go Like these sainted patrons"Lies, like rust, decayIs your heart that way?And good intentions are no guarantee, just look at meAre you gonna keep your word?"When the seige beginsWhen the thieves break inWill you stand your ground?And when you fight the wars on foreign soilWill I rest assured?Are you gonna keep your word?And as we watch our children sleepLetras de cancionesI take her hand, I feel her ringI have been faithful, but I know my heart is not above deceitLies, like rust, decayIs your heart that way?Vows, like prayers, are heardWill I keep my word?Lies, little lies come back to haunt you like petty fraudVows are made forever before GodAnd I will always keep my word to you
