Promise of You - Edwin Mccain

Promise of you

It sleeps in the air

The air that I breathe

And I know that it’s true

Don’t have to convince myself to believe

What secrets sleep in the heart of a man

So much love wasted

Slip right through my hands

See it in the eyes of the lonely

As they make their weary way

Shimmer in the eyes of longing

I hear it say

Promise of you

It sleeps in the air

The air that I breathe

And I know that it’s true

Don’t have to convince myself to believe

To believe…

What secrets sleep in the heart of the night

Dreams of salvation

Slipping out of sight

In the shimmering moments of twilight

Closing up the shine

Whisper on the wind of a rescue

Savior in time

Promise of you

It sleeps in the air

The air that I breathe

And I know that it’s true

Don’t have to convince myself to believe

All this time

I’ve been fighting my own private war

All this time

You were the peace I was looking for
