Lyrics

Oh oh oh

A winter palace from the arabian nights
White waves on an ocean, gems from a golden age
Life in your new world turning round and round
Making some sense where there's no sense at all

(Na na na na, na na na na, na na na na, na na na na)
No promises, but if you should fall

Stars die in the silence of arabian nights
Wind washes the seasons in these days of a golden age
Life in your new world turning round and round
Making some sense where there's no sense at all

(Na na na na, na na na na, na na na na, na na na na)
No promises but if you should fall

I could give you more than just the shape of things
Break every word begin it all again
Your name on a white sheet, pure lace shot with passion
But as love lies bleeding in your hands

Heaven sends you no promises of arabian nights
No white waves on an ocean, no gems from a golden age
Life in your new world turning round and round
So make some sense where there's no sense at all

(Na na na na, na na na na) oh (na na na na, na na na na)
I give you no promises (no promises)
But if you should fall (but if you should fall)
No promises (no promises)
But if you should fall (but if you should fall) you fall
(Na na na na, na na na na, na na na na, na na na na)
No promises, but if you should fall
(Na na na na, na na na na, na na na na, na na na na)
Ooh, no promises, but if you should fall, you fall
(Na na na na, na na na na, na na na na, na na na na)
Ooh, life in your new world as it turns round and round
(Na na na na, na na na na, na na na na, na na na na)
Mmm, mmm, no promises...[fade]
