Promises In The Dark Lyrics - Best Shots - Pat Benatar

Never again, isn't that what you said 

You've been through this before 

You swore, this time, you'd think with your head 

No one would ever have you again 

And if takin' was gonna get done, you'd decide where and when 

Just when you think you got it down 

Your heart securely tied and bound 

They whisper promises in the dark 

Armed and ready, you fought love battles in the night 

But too many opponents made you weary of the fight 

Blinded by passion, you foolishly let someone in 

All the warnings went off in your head, still you had to give in

Just when you think you got it down 

Resistance nowhere to be found 

They whisper promises in the dark 

But promises you know what they're for 

It sounds so convincing, but you heard it before 

'Cause talk is cheap and you gotta be sure 

And so you put up your guard 

And you try to be hard but your heart says try again

You desperately search for a way to conquer the fear 

No line of attack has been planned to fight back the tears 

Where brave and restless dreams are both won and lost 

On the edge is where it seems it's well worth the cost 

Just when you think you got it down 

Your heart in pieces on the ground 

They whisper promises in the dark
