Within Temptation
The Promise
[Verse]
On behalf of her love
She no longer sleeps
Life had no longer meaning
Nothing to make her stay
She sold her soul away

[Chorus]
I held you tight to me
You slipped away
You promised to return to me
And I believed, I believed

[Verse]
After the night he died
I wept my tears until they dried
But the pain stayed the same
I didn't want him to die all in vain
I made a promise to revenge his soul in time
I'll make them bleed down at my feet

[Chorus]
I held you tight to me
But, you slipped away
You promised to return to me
And I believed
