专辑:《Truly Madly Completely》

Well don't you know I need a little indulgence?
Listen to the hunter becoming hunted

Every day there's a million advances

Don't be too forceful' you'll ruin your chances

Well don't you know that time is a broken glass

That splinters against the wall?
But the picture is coming back now baby'

And I want to take it all
Don't go making all these promises

you know you cannot keep

There's a time to play a king
and a time to be the thief

'Cause if you're making all these promises
you know you cannot keep
You know time will be the thief
and your fallen king will end up alone

So let you're body move a little bit closer

Silent like the sound proceeding a cyclone

Don't you know that powerful thinking

Can be a force you don't want to relinquish?

Well don't you know that'
They say that hanging on will justify the wait?

But patience and elated wisdom

don't share a common phrase

Don't go making all these promises

you know you cannot keep

There's a time to play a king
and a time to be the thief

'Cause if you're making all these promises

you know you cannot keep
You know time will be the thief
and your fallen king will end up alone

Well' I'm only hanging on for what goes down

I'm floating high and my feet don't touch the ground

I'd take advantage but I can't see through this charade

So don't you' don't go make it harder than hell
（Don't go making promises）

（Don't go making promises）

'Cause when it comes down to the making
You better be damned sure you can take it
Hey baby
（Don't go making promises）

（Don't go making promises）

（oh baby'don't you know baby）

Well don't go making all these promises

you know you cannot keep
There's a time to play a king
and a time to be a thief

'Cause if your making all these promises

you know you cannot keep
You know time will be the thief
and your fallen king will end up alone
Well don't go making all these promises

you know you cannot keep
There's a time to play a king
and a time to be a thief
'Cause if your making all these promises

you know you cannot keep
You know time will be the thief
and your fallen king will end up...

A fool' a fool' a lonely sorry fool
Oh baby' 'cause I told you baby
