  • "Promises"... ♡
    by Basia
    Promises
    We forgot all our promises
    And only keep some of the easiest
    I confess I do
    Make believe
    However small the possibility
    But sometimes tripped up by reality
    Formality it seems
    Now I found
    Having come the long way round
    I am closer, closer than before
    Here and now is all that it's about
    Let's use it or we'll lose it
    Go and ask anybody
    They will all say the same, everyone
    Love is contagious
    We are part of a chain
    History
    We could live our life from history
    But there's no future in a memory
    You'll see, my love
    Oh,there's no future in a memory
    You'll see, my love
    Now I found
    Having come the long way round
    I am closer, closer than before
    Here and now is all that it's about
    Let's use it or we'll lose it
    Go and ask anybody
    They will all say the same, everyone
    Love is contagious
    We are part of a chain
    Go and ask anybody
    They will all say the same, everyone
    Love is contagious
    We are part of a chain
    (Instrumental)
    You will see, my love
    Go and ask anybody
    They will all say the same, everyone
    Love is contagious
    We are part of a chain

    This song will never not be a groove for me. Basia’s harmonies, the instrumentation, the simple, truthful lyrics … yes. I’m always down for Promises 💜💜💜

    All of these wonderful songs by Basia bring back a wonderful time in my life back in the 80's. I was living the good life. Making money hand over fist and spending it as fast as I could get it and all on fun and fantastic fantasies. Fall trips through the Rocky's and Yellowstone, Glacier Park. Lots of wonderful memories but..............................................but they could have been all the more memorable if I had treated the only woman I dated that decade with a lot more love, honor and respect. I am so sorry Linda.

      Eu tinha 1 ano na época da novela e lembro só dá reprise no Vale a Pena ver de novo de dezembro de 1991 a maio de 1992.
      Meu tio tinha a fita da trilha sonora da novela Fera Radical internacional.
      Quase apanhei do meu tio depois que eu fui flagrado rasgando o papel da fita.
      Pra fugir da surra, me escondi no tanque de lavar roupa do prédio onde eu morava com o meu tio.

    David thank you being such a complete gentleman, to me, back in 1991. I never got a chance to give you a proper thank you; getting me on the road to recovery and being so kind and humane. I hope you and your family are happy and well. I also hope one day we can be friends. Also for getting me into Basia. Please be happy and be well.
    Warm regards to you & your's,
