lyrics

Written by Jeffrey Lee Pierce

Promise me
Outside in the trees
You're waiting tonight

Promise me
While the searching light moon
Has found me

You know it feels like the last time again

Promise me someone who will promise me
Stand in the dark and fight like me
Through eyes like fireflies

Turn around and tell me it'll be alright
(Is it alright?)

(solo)

Promise me
Don't cheat my soul
When it returns to me

Promise me
Give me the vision
I was born to see

You know it feels like years
since they burned me away,

You know it feels like years
since they took my heart away,

You know it feels like years
Oh it feels like years,

You know it feels like years
since they took my eyes away
