Promises

Eric Clapton · Complete Clapton [2007]

I don't care if you never come home

I don't mind if you just keep on rowing away on a distant sea

'Cause I don't love you and you don't love me



You cause a commotion when you come to town

You give 'em a smile and they melt

Having lovers and friends is all good and fine

But I don't like yours and you don't like mine



La-la, la-la-la-la

La-la, la-la-la-la



I don't care what you do at night

Oh, oh, I don't care how you get your delights

I'm going to leave you alone, I'll just let it be

I don't love you and you don't love me



I got a problem, can you relate

I got a woman calling love hate

We made a vow we'd always be friends

How could we know that promises end



La-la, la-la-la-la

La-la, la-la-la-la



I tried to love you for years upon years

You refuse to take me for real

It's time you saw what I want you to see

That I'd still love you if you'd just love me



I got a problem, can you relate

I got a woman calling love hate

We made a vow we'd always be friends

How could we know that promises end



La-la, la-la-la-la
