Chris Cornell - Promise lyrics

[Verse 1] The first time I ever saw you You had that far away look in your eyes And heaven's eyes shined down upon you And the whole room filled up with light Now the cruel world it's going to try and change you Try to hang you up and mess with your pride Now the rich just try to chain you You got to keep your fire burning inside [Chorus] Promise me You won't let them put out your fire Put out your fire Promise me You won't let them put out your fire Put out your fire [Verse 2] Now sometimes the world tries to slap you And it seems to love watching you fall I won't lie to you, it's going to happen You got to pick yourself up and move on [Chorus] Promise me You won't let them put out your fire Put out your fire Promise me You won't let them put out your fire Put out your fire [SOLO] [Bridge] Which star will I be thinking of tonight Tonight Which star will I be thinking of tonight Tonight [Chorus] Promise me You won't let them put out your fire Put out your fire Promise me You won't let them put out your fire Put out your fire [Outro] Promise me (Why don't you) Promise me (Why don't you) Promise me (Why don't you) Promise me (Why don't you)
