Randy Travis - Promises Lyrics
Cheap perfume, and painted faces...
fallen angels fill the places
where I go when my troubles bring me down.
All the lies, I know they'll tell me,
and the time that they will sell me...
Back at home...
in bed, she's crying.
For her love for me is dying.
But she'll pray I make it safely through the night.
When the morning sun starts showing,
to her bedside I'll be going,
And she'll hold me
while I face the morning light.
promises to change.
I'll make her promises,
swear I'll rearrange,
and I'll start giving all the
love she needs, if only she
will stay.
Once again, she'll reassure me.
And I believe her love will cure me,
and I'll fall asleep with tears on my face.
And I know she's just a woman,
and her love can't last forever.
And someday soon, I know
she'll leave without a trace.
For, broken promises will tear her dreams apart.
Just token promises will someday
break her heart,
and for the last time, she'll hold me
when I cry, and while I'm sleeping...
she'll quietly say goodbye...

Randy Travis Promises Comments
Amazing song, sung by one of country & western's best voices ever.
Now, this is Country...luvv ya, always. Jeanette Lee USA. California
See that's the Difference she left a trail you can see all the way back to Katy's Trail for me she did ya far me she Did
Mighty good man!!! 1990 Ashland City TN he would let me take my kids on his property to look for arrowheads...Randy turned out to be a good influence on my kids...
One of my favourite Randy Travis songs! Beautiful!
What a song!!!! OMG. If this song dont RIP your heart out, you ain't got one. Great tune!!!!
WoW, What a voice this Man has, this is country for all you kids that think keith urban is country...
Only the Possum could have pulled this off in his prime! Keep fighting that big fight sir, your a legend and will never be forgotten!
The new generation of pop country singers need to take a listen.. REAL singing, NO backing tracks, and, NO autotune. This is as pure as it gets.. He is still alive on this earth, but this one of a kind voice..... Silenced. How sad..
My marriage for 25 years until I said goodbye.
325 are clueless.
Fuck these ads
I can say this song is perfect for me cuz I've made so many promises to the love of my life that id change everytime i fucked up but god bless her for putting up with my shit i love her with all my heart and would do anything for her this is real music not like now a days
Wow Amzaing.
Randy's incredable song of "He walks on water" reminds me of my personal experience of me ( Dad) and my son. Almost to the T.
oh this song kills me - makes my heart hurt.
what a stud
Absolutely mesmerising!
Broken Promises...one right after the other, makes for a broken heart! Think before you go and break someone, yours may be the one stomped next, then you'll know why you'll cry the whole song through! Love the words , sang beautifully!! ⚘⚘💛💔👣🐾💧💧💧💧💧🌷
Broken promise by a women I had had my trust into not to break my heart I suppose I can't just go on into a nother relationship as long as she making me feel the pain so painfully
My favorites are Marty Robbins and Ray Price and Conway Twitty and Loretta Lynn
Randy is good like them god bless him in his hour of need
I could almost cry right now. The late 80's were very painful.
Hands down this song is top shelf such as George Jones, He stopped loving her today. Still wishing you the best Randy.
Country Magic!
what u do about me
Lady
shame about this guy. True country.
👍💕
Why am I crying? His voice! Love him!
I believe this may be the most heart felt song that Randy ever did...
quite touching 🌷 🎻 beautifully sung ❤️
Just crazy good.
ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL 💕👍🏻🎼🎶🎸🎤
Beautiful Randy 🎸🎸💞💞💞💞💞🎶🎶🎶😘
Anyone still listening to Randy Travis in 2019?
I'll never quite he is one of our one of our last real country music singers
Yes Sir, my kids know all his songs and my granddaughters will know his amazing voice. He is a treasure ❤️
This has to be the best song ever
Always listening x
Most definitely... plan on continuing in 2020!
my babe.... love him. I heaven you, found you place.
Heartbreaker, for all times. 14 years of recovery now, at this end, all debts are payed, but never really free of all guilt..
He be back on his feet one day I know it
that's country music
Now, this is real country music. His voice just captivates you. This has got to be one of his best songs.
You mother fucking right this S.O.B. don't know country if it slap in the face. These New Millennium singers they ain't s*** they couldn't even fit their jockstrap
Did anyone get goosebumps listening to this song?
Randy Travis, George Strait, Alan Jackson, John Anderson, and Dwight Yoakam were excellent replacements for Conway Twitty, Merle Haggard, Charlie Pride, George Jones and Walon Jennings, and yet there have been no good replacements for them. It's a shame when great country music dies.
Powerful Randy Travis! Damn son
This should have 20 million plays
My Country
Randy Travis had such a long career and won every type of award possible. He has battled his demons and came out on top. What a great man !!! Wish he was still recording, even though he still does a few concerts. Truly a country man thru and thru.
Thanks for sharing this Anointed video message from a Blessed Country Artists. God Bless.
Great song! Hello type "Ron Howard cover" listen to Opie sing "Three wooden crosses"!
Real county music
Whose gonna fill his shoes?
He is special...
My all time favorite singer
💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Omg that voice tho 2019 and still unbelievable....a woman can only take so much pain trust me guys been there ....and to think a stroke took his voice away ....I guess it’s not what you take when you leave the world behind you , it’s what you leave behind you when your gone .....love you randy ...❤️➕🙏🏻
:'( and :')
I lived this song true..
I love him so much! Always have.
Diana your a roommate to many and a soulmate to no one. I prayed you was my soulmate and thought that you was and I was wrong.
this is the best song he ever sang. and he's had many hits
There is only one Randy Travis, that's it
Randy is one of the great and true legends of country legends! Forget these new age fucks!
tears.....thank you for......forever
This is the closet thing to real music we ever had back in that time. Randy didn't have to try it was god given talent and it came natural. this music today has no heart or meaning. if u think it does watch this 10 times and then watch today's garbage and tell me I'm wrong.
Just a man and his guitar.....beautiful.
love you randy blues gal and now randys biggest fan colorodo via iowa and denmark
I love my husband
hate the haters
this song has a certain poetic justice. For anyone who's been there, you'll regret it
Randy Travis is a good classic country singer. He knows what men are cable of to make promises they can't keep. a sing about them.
Brilliance!!! He is such a gift to country music and a once in a generation talent. I hope his recovery continues and that the world can hear his rich voice singing again.
He performed this song live as well as anyone in history has ever sang a song!
So powerful...I hadn't heard this song in awhile. This is my back story.😭😭😭 ....."and she quietly said goodbyeeee...."😢😖 what a painful era that was!!! And he still wanders this earth just as lost as can be. 😞
hits a cord but I don't know why. Maybe it's his voice that makes what he is singing feel so true. Excellent ,
Amein Randy Don't EVER turn back !!! We will endure with Jesus to the end ! Praying for you and your family always. Shalom.
I just LOVE this song two thums up Mr.Travis
so amazing, sweet beautiful voice, i love your music so much Randy, love you, God bless you

,Randy keep fighting, No one can keep a great guy Down.
Back in the late 80s /early 90s, I related to this song sooooo much. It was a way to let me know that others were feeling my same pain.
Yep . /°(-_-)°\ I'm that asshole too . = /
Randy you are a great singer, screw Nashville God Bless You👍👍👍😘😊💃you are still hot and sexy💃💃💃💃😘😘😘😘😘
His concert is one of the best ever back when Alan Jackson opened for him at the dean dome in chapel hill n.c back in early 90's
What a powerful story put into song....😔

Chills and tears
Arguably the greatest country performance ever.....
CLASSICAL!!!!
