Promises
PROMISE THE WORLD, JUST SAY IT'LL BE TOMORROW
The riches of Midas you can promise for tomorrow
Promise that problems will disappear and no more sorrow
The sun Up above will forevermore shine
The table will be full of favorites on which to dine
The stars in the sky will rearrange to spell someone's name
All impossibilities can be promised if it is made plain
To just say TOMORROW before committing to a promise
For tomorrow never comes so you haven't been dishonest
