A Taste With A Better Flavor
Do I believe what I cook,
Has a taste with a better flavor?
How do you expect me to respond,
To such a ridiculous question?
'I just thought I would ask.'
I don't bother myself,
With such nonsense.
However...
I have noticed a committment,
In your eyes.
Are you using my samples as examples?
And are you wishing that I whip up another dish?
'Only if you promise it will be more terrific.'
I can only promise you a deliciousness,
That's it.

Yes I Am
In these days and these hours of fury
When the darkness and answers are thin
Lovers come and check out in a hurry
Shallow and hollow again
Come lay your body beside me
To dream to sleep with the lamb
To the question your eyes seem to send
Am I your passion your promise your end
I say I am
Yes I am
Your passion your promise your end
Yes I am
Barring divine intervention
There is nothing between you and I
And if I carelessly forgot to mention
Your body your power can sanctify
Come feed your hunger your thirst
Lay it down the beast will die
You can question my heart once again
Am I your passion your promise your end
I say I am
Yes I am
Your passion your promise your end
Yes I am
I will stand firm in the tempest
I will ride destinys' trail
To believe when the truth comes up empty
To hold and respect without fail
Come and be one in the motion
A desire they cannot comprehend
Never to question again
For I am your passion your promise your end
Oh yes I am

Take The Lid Off The Pot
Just take the lid off the pot
Savor all the flavor
Take the lid off the pot
Savor all the flavor
Take the lid off the pot
And savor all the flavor
That's inside of the pot
To then taste what that pot has got
It's been long in simming
With select ingredients
Mouths drool and this is seen
With a stirring up the scent
Eyes are watering with dreams
Now's the time to dip in and get eating
To stop the teasing that was meant
Take the lid off the pot
Savor all the flavor
Take the lid off the pot
Savor all the flavor
Take the lid off the pot
And savor all the flavor
That's inside of the pot.
To then taste what that pot has got
Delicious is the stew
To satisfy those licking lips
Deliciously it soothes
For those who sit and wish
With a wanting more of it!
Just take that lid off the pot
To savor all the flavor
Take the lid off the pot
Savor all the flavor
Take that lid off the pot
And savor all the flavor
That's inside of the pot
To then taste what that pot has got.
'What's the matter? '
There's none left!
'What are you saying?
What do you mean? '
It's gone
All of it
So
Take those memories you've got
And reminisce those wishes
That was inside that pot
There is not even a drop!

I Promise
I won't run away no more, I promise
Even when I get bored, I promise
Even when you lock me out, I promise
I say my prayers every night, I promise
I don't wish that I'm strict, I promise
The tantrums and the chilling chats, I promise
Even when the ship is wrecked, I promise
Tie me to the rotten deck, I promise
I won't fool around no more, I promise
Even when I get bored, I promise
Even when you lock me out, I promise
I say my prayers every night, I promise
I won't fool around no more, I promise

I Promise You
i would walk through the moon and the sun just to be with you i promise.
I promise to be there for you in all of your times of joy and sorrow.
I promise to climb the highest mountain and swim the deapest ocean for you alone.I promise to make a new memory with you each and every day with you.I Promise to cry a million tears and walk a million miles to be with you.I promise to live and care for you without change.I promise to do anything for you just to see the beauty of your ravishing smile.I promise to find a new way to see fires of passion burning.I would buy a thousand rose for you just to se you smile i promise.I promise to be the best dad to our children.I will laugh with you, i will fight with you, i will share the same breath with you i promise.I promise never to steal, lie, or cheat.But if i'll steal, i promise to steal away your sorrows.And if i'll lie, i promise to lie with you all thd nights of my life.And if i'll cheat, i promise to cheat your death, because i couldn't live a day without you.I promise you.

It's A Promise
When I get up in the morning and see first light
I remember it's a promise
When the sun begins to set with color
I remember it's a promise
When I stare up in the darkest night, and see brightest moonlight
I remember it's a promise
When a ray of light slices the clouds and it's pure
I remember it's a promise
When I see the majestic forest of green tree
I remember it's a promise
When I see the blue ocean
I remember it's a promise
When I see the sparkle of a star or the shining of the sun
I remember it's a promise
If I look into the stars and see a galaxy
I remember it's a promise
Somehow everything will be fine like the world around me
Because in everything there's a promise
And when a promise is bound by unfailing love
It can't be broken
That's a promise.

Promise Me Youll Try
Promise me youll try
(p. zizzo)
I know its on your heart
That a love like ours
Shall never fall apart
Youre so afraid of the rain
So Ill take your hand
And Ill love you in the best way that I can
And I only expect the same
Dont promise me forever
Dont promise me the sun and sky
Dont pretend to know
Youll never make me cry
Just hold me now
And promise me youll try
Though Im sure of what I feel
I never thought a love
So true felt so unreal
And Im a little afraif myself
If you love me day by day
With an honest heart and just a little faith
Baby time will tell the tale
Just hold me now
And promise me youll try

Samples of the Examples
Ma...
Why do you spank me so much?
You know you are creating my dysfunctions.
'Because I love you.
And you are the oldest.
You have to set the example for your sisters.'
Well,
Can you not love me so much?
And give them some of the samples,
Of the examples you want me to set?
I have an idea...
Why don't you switch up on your routine.
And I promise not to be jealous,
If you give them all your love.

The Promise
Promise me that you won't stop loving me.
No matter what the cost is.
Promise you won't runaway from me.
Just promise that you'll never make me cry.
Promise you won't die on me
And leave me alone in this cold world
Just promise me you'll be there.

See The Sun
I'm comin' 'round to open the blinds
You can't hide here any longer
My God you need to rinse those puffy eyes
You can't last here any longer
And yes they'll ask you where you've been
And you'll have to tell them again and again
And you probably don't want to hear tomorrow's another day
Well I promise you you'll see the sun again
And you're asking me why pain's the only way to happiness
And I promise you you'll see the sun again
Come on take my hand
We're going for a walk, I know you can
You can wear anything as long as it's not black
Please don't mourn forever
She's not coming back
And yes they'll ask you where you've been
And you'll have to tell them again and again
And you probably don't want to hear tomorrow's another day
Well I promise you you'll see the sun again
And you're asking me why pain's the only way to happiness
And I promise you you'll see the sun again
And I promise you you'll see the sun again
Do you remember telling me you found the sweetest thing of all
You said one day of this was worth dying for
So be thankful you knew her at all
But it's no more
And you probably don't want to hear tomorrow's another day
Well I promise you you'll see the sun again
And you're asking me why pain's the only way to happiness
And I promise you you'll see the sun again
And you probably don't want to hear tomorrow's another day
Well I promise you you'll see the sun again
And you're asking me why pain's the only way to happiness
And I promise you you'll see the sun again
See the sun again

You & A Promise
She was nervous, she was late
She left it up to fate
Stading at a phone
And she knows what she wants
And she came here to take it
How perfect it could be
You and me
And she met him at the door
"I don't want you anymore"
"Remember what you said?"
You and a promise...
You and a promise...
You...
Turned and he didn't wait
He walked right thru the gate
So gald to be alone
And he knows who to call
"I'll always be there for you,
call me anytime"
"I don't mean to offend,
the voice on the other end
is a stranger to me"
You and a promise...
You and a promise...
You...
And they say to themselves
And they say to themselves
How could I ever let this happen
You and a promise...
You and a promise...

Promises
Two hearts that shouldnt
Talk to each other become close
In a town much like a prison cell
People speak our names
On the street in hushed tones
Oh the stories theyd tell
If anyone would listen
You come from a town where
People dont bother saying hello
Unless somebodys born or dies
And I come from a place where they
Drag your hopes through the mud
Because their own dreams are all dying
And when we walk down the street
The wind sings our name in rebel songs
The sounds of the night should make us anxious
But its much to late when the fear is gone
I will meet you in the next life, I promise you
Where we can be together, I promise you
I will wait till then in heaven, I promise you
I promise, I promise
Theres so many fighting
To get past the pearly gates
But nobody ever wants to die or get saved
Their intentions arent that good
And I can smell the asphalt
Thats their personal road to hell being paved
And when we walk down the street
The wind sings our name in rebel songs
But its much to late when the fear is gone
I will meet you in the next life, I promise you
Where we can be together, I promise you
I will wait till then in heaven, I promise you
I promise, I promise
Solo - pitrelli / solo - mustaine
I will meet you in the next life, I promise you
Where we can be together, I promise you
I will wait till then in heaven, I promise you
I promise, I promise

Cooking and taste
eating the same tasteless dinner at the only diner
the umpteenth time, a thought came to my mind
am i a guinea pig or one of its kind
or was there a conspiracy behind
has my taste buds gone out of date
why is all so tasteless, that is the food i ate
i dared to ask the manager why the taste is so bad
bang came a caustic reply, this is by the best cook he ever had
(insinuating a problem not with his cook but with my taste)
well then it has to be my taste buds i thought
directing all my efforts to the food i had bought
then came storming, the savior, inside the hall
in his hand was the same food for which i have taken the fall
indignanlty he shouted at the manager
this food is so bad that even his dog had refused to had
hell i thought even the dog has a better taste
why, why am i such a waste
the dog in me forced me to start cooking that very day
the dog in me does sometimes refuses to eat what i cook
the human in me requests him to hav another look
for, when people are struggling for one square meal a day
how can i keep the food i cooked at bay,
hence i eat, taste or no taste, everything i cook, every day.
Keep The Promise
(j.p. maunick/r. bull/r. taylor)
Felt so good when we started
The future burnt so bright
From the moment our eyes met
We knew that it was so right
We have each other
And I believe we have the power
To make it happen
Chorus:
(keep the promise)
(can we keep the promise)
Can we keep it
(keep the promise alive)
Oh
(keep the promise)
(can we keep the promise)
(keep the promise alive)
I believe in the notion
We have dreams to fulfill
I believe in forever
I know that I always will
You are the reason
Baby I cannot shake this feelin
Lets make it happen
Repeat chorus
It gets better, it gets stronger all the time
And Ive discovered that theres one thing on my mind
Keep the promise alive
Chorus to fade

There's A Paradise
And I promise you
There's a paradise
And I promise you
There's a paradise
Were its never raining
And the music playing everything's alright
And I promise you
There's a paradise
You start to jam if you agree with me
Lets come together we are family
Pay close attention if you lean on me
For don't you know that it will set you free
Pop is always for the light romancing
Searching for love so keep on trancing
Here is the question if you feel real nice
I promise you there is a paradise
Enjoy yourself is no tragedy
Enjoy yourself is your fantasy
Now this is the song oh baby cant you see
The rhythm the rimes and my melody
You mist it up your life is show
How far you gonna go I really don't know
Here is the story and it cold as ice
Like I promise you there is a paradise

For A Girl
For a girl who would always say the truth I promise I will never lie...
For a girl who would trust me completely I promise I will never cheat on her...
For a girl who accepts me as the way I am I promise I will hold on her forever...
For a girl who would treat my parents as her own I promise I will respect her parents too...
For a girl who would care me like her child I promise I would love her like my mother...
For a girl who would be there in my sorrow I promise I will give her all my happiness...
For a girl who wouldn't see other men I promise she would be only girl of my life...
For a girl who would love me unconditionally I promise I would be the man she wants to be...

The Promise Of The Spring
THE PROMISE OF THE SPRING
The promise of the Spring
Of another day
So different from the rest
We dare not guess
Its Beauty now.
The promise of another world
Whose light has eyes we cannot yet bear.
The promise of what is beyond us forever
And lures us to it always
As if we are in essence
Beings of the great Unknown
Seeking ever
For the Star we will never see.
