The Promise - Lyrics - Zucchero

Adelmo Fornaciari , more commonly known by his stage name Zucchero Fornaciari or simply Zucchero Ëtsukkero , is an Italian rock singer and Order of Merit of the Italian Republic. His music is largely inspired by gospel, soul and rock music, and alternates between ballads and more rhythmic boogie-like pieces.

Main street lights, morning hours, Lead me down to quiet streets Early traffic with it's radio songs Someplace two rivers meet Will you be in my life? Kiss me in the shadows Time, time, time's going to keep the promise It's alright, it's alright Mercy falls on my sacred ground Pretty woman cries but makes no sound I am lost, it don't matter If the paper house comes tumbling down Going to be in your life, standing in the shadows Time, time, time's going to make the days flow It's alright, the promise It's alright, the loveless Only a moment in time The prayers of all the people will fly Blessing the city tonight I'll wait for the sound of our voices To sing... Love comes and it's alright, that's all Believe me and it's alright, that's all
