Indigo Girls Making Promises song lyrics

What am I gonna do with you?

So far away, it makes me blue

I never mind just being alone

but I felt defeated and I let it show

You know I could have ridden the rainbow

And this once I needed you to let me know

CHORUS:

I couldn't keep myself from making promises

I'm of two hearts and up all night

I couldn't keep myself from making promises

I'm gonna get it right this time

Who's gonna say you paid your dues

With the strung out soundman

and the promoter dude?

With a pat on the back just a little far down

You cut your teeth on a drinking crowd

Ah never mind you didn't make it

What's the point if you're never gonna shake it?

CHORUS:

And when the spring is coming around

And I'm feeling braver I'm gonna lay it down

And when the teenage hoodlums come out

I'm gonna give 'em a smile

And just a little doubt

Ah never mind you didn't make it

What's the point if you're never gonna shake it?

CHORUS:
