Letra Promises In The Dark de Bad Examples original

I was 23 and living in the city
I met a long-legged blonde on friday night
It was a head on collision of passion
We made wild-eyed, loose-lipped love all night
On saturday we went out dancing
I could see she wanted to be free
She said, 'darling, I'm sorry to leave you this way...'
I said, 'how can you walk out on me? '

(chorus)
She said, 'hey, hey, my, my, what's the story?
How can you say I broke your heart?
Someone as old as you should never look for the truth
In promises made in the dark.'

Well, I went back to her apartment
I waited all night in my car
When she got there I said, 'hey you can't take him to bed!'
She said, 'who in the hell do you think you are? '

Chorus

When her boyfriend pulled out a revolver
I smiled and I said my farewells
Love can take you to the sun, love can take you to the moon
It's not worth getting you killed

Chorus
