as you close the window.

any which way the wind blows.

A little something for sleepless nights.

Countless words ago.
[Chorus 1]

like a ship in a bottle.

And you know that promises of love;

Have (luv') power of their own.
G A F#m7 Bm
They linger on for a little while.

But once the meaning's gone, baby.
[Chorus 1]

Promises, promises, are not what I need.
