Promises

Two hearts that shouldn't 
talk to each other become close 
in a town much like a prison cell 
People speak our names 
on the street in hushed tones 
oh the stories they'd tell 
if anyone would listen 
You come from a town where 
people don't bother saying hello 
unless somebody's born or dies 
And i come from a place where they 
drag your hopes through the mud 
because their own dreams are all dying 
And when we walk down the street 
the wind sings our name in rebel songs 
the sounds of the night should make us anxious 
but it's much to late when the fear is gone 
I will meet you in the next life, i promise you 
where we can be together, i promise you 
i will wait till then in heaven, i promise you 
i promise, i promise 
There's so many fighting 
to get past the pearly gates 
but nobody ever wants to die or get saved 
Their intentions aren't that good 
and i can smell the asphalt 
that's their personal road to hell being paved 
And when we walk down the street 
the wind sings our name in rebel songs 
but it's much to late when the fear is gone 
I will meet you in the next life, i promise you 
where we can be together, i promise you 
i will wait till then in heaven, i promise you 
i promise, i promise 
I will meet you in the next life, i promise you 
where we can be together, i promise you 
i will wait till then in heaven, i promise you 
i promise, i promise
