The Never Deserting Shadow Lyrics - Singles - Jarboe

give me your promise baby tell me true 

give me your promise i will love you 

give me your promise baby make it tonight 

give me your promise tell me you're mine 

superficiality comes in easily 

protect now the inner sanctum 

alone with myself i barely recognize 

reasons for this occurrence 

and for this demise 

superficiality comes in easily 

protect now the inner sanctum 

but if with a mind that is calm and clean 

with him does bliss follow 

mind is supreme all is creation of mind 

like the never-deserting shadow 

"how many times will i ask this of you baby 

how will i make myself clear to you baby 

how many prayers will i offer tonight baby 

through the soft veil of these hot lonely tears 

baby ooooh... 

the never-deserting shadow 

the never-deserting shadow 

give me your promise baby oooh tell me true 

give me your promise i will love you 

give me your promise baby make it tonight 

give me your promise tell me you're mine 

oooh the shadow, the never-deserting shadow 

the never-deserting shadow
