Intro:

         
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,

Interlude:
          
          

Verse:

                                      
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,

Chorus:

         
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 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,

Chorus:

         
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,

Bridge:

  
All this  time,
                                                
I've been fighting my own private war,

  
All this  time,
                                           
You were the peace I was looking for

Chorus:

         
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,
