Promises

Police cars 'round in circles
The silence gathering
You never know what's next down here
Close your eyes and shut your mouthI know I won't last forever
If there's nothing left in your heart for me
Baby, baby, baby, baby
Too young to die and too old
To believe in promisesThe ambulance is singing
To streetcars in the rain
Like Barracuda waiting
For the guns down in the hoodBut this ain't no West Side Story
And the curtain's comin' down on me
Baby, baby, baby, baby
Too young to die and too old
To believe in promisesIt's all sound and all fury
It's all reach and no touch
It's all life's cold bravado
All grown up and old so fastAnd I know I won't last forever
If there's nothing left in your heart for me
Baby, baby, baby, baby
Too young to die and too old
Too young to die and too old
To believe in promisesNa na na
Na na na
Na na naNa na na, we all walk alone
Na na na
