Promises (Richard Feldman, Roger Linn) (from Backless, 1978)
I don't care if you never come home. I don't mind if you just Keep on rowin'away on a distant sea cuz I don't love you and you don't love me.
You cause a commotion when you come to town
You give 'em a smile and they meet Having lovers and friends is all good and fine But I don't like yours and you don't like mine.
La la la ...
I don't care what you do at night oh I don't care how you get your delights We'll leave it alone We'll just let it be I don't love you and you don't love me.
I got a problem Can you relate? I got a woman Callin' love hate. We made a vow we'd always be friends. How could we know that promises end.
La la la ...
I tried to love you for years upon years But you refuse to take me for real It's time you saw what I want you to see That I'd still love you if you'd just love me.
I got a problem Can you relate? I got a woman Callin' love hate. We made a vow we'd always be friends. How could we know that promises end.
