Keep Me in Your Promise

Verse 1

Laughing down the Detroit line

Steel wheels on a brand new time

Radio hums in a borrowed Ford

We never needed nothing more

Chorus

Oh keep me in your promise

Before the long light fades

We got a river of believing

Runnin' through these avenues

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh oh-oh

Keep holding on

Oh-oh oh-oh

Verse 2

They told us take the quiet road

Maybe we were too loud to fold

Every no just made us sure

That our yes would open doors

Pre-Chorus

And I found you in the crowd

Like sunlight through the gray

Chorus

Oh keep me in your promise

Before the long light fades

We got a river of believing

Runnin' through these avenues

Bridge

Where the factory hums its prayer

Every voice is in the air

Turn the corner turn the wheel

Tell my whole heart how I feel

(How I feel)

Oh this love is overdue

(I'm telling you)

Come on now make me true

Chorus

Oh keep me in your promise

Before the long light fades

We got a river of believing

Runnin' through these avenues

Outro

Maybe the day will catch us slow

Maybe the lonely wind will blow

But hold my name in the dark

Keep a little flame alive

Mm keep the flame alive
