Herbert Grönemeyer - Promise My Love lyrics

Build you a bed of roses To dream in as petals descend Which crowd around your golden pillow Where every rainbow ends The rainbow ends The rainbow must end. Our south facing windows will gaze On a dazzling crystalline sea Which I'll smooth like our sheets every morning Then retrieve sunken dreams carefully Swap your pains, for mother of pearl I'll do all your laughing and crying With an ace up each sleeve for you girl. I promise you my love if you want it If you're sinking, I'll sing you my psalm In this craziest of times My rope ladder you can climb And the scariest of storms I will calm. I'll lie through my teeth if you need it Kiss it better, should tragedy strike All your sorrows I'll impale Gladly go straight to jail Have the devil dance a jig if you like. Consider your wishes all granted Cream from a bottomless cup I'll be at your beck and call endless Like a kitchen roll, just use me up Use me up Just use me up The drizzle I'll turn into fine wine To serve on a tray in the den And all I'll have raining from heaven Are pennies, pounds, Deutschmarks or Yen I'll turn the clouds to diamanté And pile them up each rosy red dawn Into castles, to keep bad at bay And only good moods I'll allow in The dark ones must wait by the door Have them feed all heartaches To a huge flock of doves Who will pull our dreamboat from the shore. I promise you my love if you want it If you're sinking, I'll sing you my psalm In this craziest of times My rope ladder you can climb And the scariest of storms I will calm.
