The Promise Lyrics
If I had nothing to my name
But photographs of you
Rescued from the flames
That is all I would ever need
As long as I can read
What's written on your face
The strength that shines
Behind your eyes
The hope and light
That will never die
And one promise you made
one promise that always remains
No matter the price
A promise to survive
Persevere and thrive
As we've always done
And you said
"The poison in a kiss
Is the lie upon the lips"
Truer words were never shared
When I feel
Like lies are all I hear
I pull my memories near
The one thing they can't take
And one promise you made
one promise that always remains
No matter the price
A promise to survive
Persevere and thrive
As you’ve always done

The books still open
on the table
The bells still ringing
in the air
The dreams still clinging
to the pillow
The songs still singing
in a prayer
Now my soul
Is stretching through the roots
To memories of you
Back through time and space
To carry home
the faces and the names
And these photographs of you
Rescued from the flames
And one promise you made
one promise that always remains
No matter the price
A promise to survive
Persevere and thrive
And dare to rise once more
A promise to survive
Persevere and thrive
And fill the world with life
As we've always done

Joel Swensen first timer here too. glad i stumbled on this video. anyone else need tissues? 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 sick to my heart when i heard of his passing. just bleh. waiting for more details on what happened though! not sure i want to or can believe after all he went through, that this was going to be how he left the world. praying it was an accidental overdose (though that's no consolation) at least some closure can be found there....

@jamesbyrd1564 7 лет назад

No one should be that attractive and sing so well. It's unfair to the rest of us. I am grateful to have received in my life the gift that is Chris Cornell. With his words, music, and by just being himself, he's done more for me than he'll ever know.

@cindyherod418 7 лет назад

James Byrd thank you I totally agree

@DozifJuggles 7 лет назад

he was too good for us

@scottmacleod9830 7 лет назад

James Byrd Although Chris wasn't a close friend of mine I'm going through the stages of grief. your words helped me realize the benefit of his life instead of feeling angry at him. it's hard to rap your head around such a lose.😖

@MyMy-nu9ul 7 лет назад

Scott Macleod. yes but along the lines with that comes growth and change👍😉

@RyanFox85 7 лет назад

Scott Macleod it's not uncommon to feel a loss even with someone you didn't know physically. Chris shared some of his most personal and intimate feelings through his music, and i think the loss we feel is just as valid as those who were close to him. We obviously know there is a difference, but we were privy to his struggles and his accomplishments; many of us from the start of his career, right until his untimely and shocking passing. And for many of us, Chris was a light in the darkest of days..... However chris helped or touched your life, that is the reason you feel the loss.... and that is real, and valid. In our grief comes strength though... May his words and music continue to help you and others today, tomorrow, and forever. That is our gift to him!!!

@cristyberger5298 7 лет назад

Such a beautiful ballad.❤ Listening to him singing to this heartfelt song which ((imho)), sounds like an Eric Clapton song.❤Chris put ''ALL," of his heart and soul, into this song (imho), [in hopes of saving missing, exploited and trafficked children].😢 Chris was in the process of shining light upon [[and ending]], the exploitation of traff1cked children, by establishing "The Chris and Vicky Cornell Foundation," JUST BEFORE HIS LIFE WAS ENDED.😢😢😢 His cell phone (his phone that was with him, in his room the night his life was ended), is '""STILL,""" missing to this day.💔😢R.I.P., Chris.❤ Many people who've investigated his death, know the same truth I know. QUESTION EVERYTHING. Chris, Chester and Avicii, ALL died after speaking out against(((and making music videos exposing))), child exploitation//child trafficking. 🙏 🙏 🙏

Thank you from the bottom of my heart Chris for being a part of our story in telling it with the power and grace of your voice. As a grand-daughter of a survivor I grew up hearing my grand parents stories of survival. My grandfather after returning from a hunting trip found his wife and two daughters murdered. He picked up his rifle and became a rebel fighter for a number of years, helping women, children and men escape. This just one of many stories from my family.

The power, the truth, of real ingenious music..

@jeniferlybrand925 7 лет назад

This silenced voice is breaking my heart. “Each one of us here today will at one time in our lives look upon a loved one who is in need and ask the same question: We are willing to help, Lord, but what, if anything, is needed? For it is true we can seldom help those closest to us. Either we don't know what part of ourselves to give or, more often than not, the part we have to give is not wanted. And so it is those we live with and should know who elude us. But we can still love them - we can love completely without complete understanding.” ― Norman Maclean, A River Runs Through It

@lucyblue_____ 7 лет назад

If I imagine the pain and heartbreak of his wife and children I have to stop myself because I feel as if a wave of despair is crushing me. I know that sounds strange, but I'm naturally very empathetic to people and I feel their loss very heavily. This is such a beautiful song. It's a blessing and a curse, the way it can play with your emotions.

@jameskersey6377 4 года назад

@terrireed4079 3 месяца назад

Exactly. He sang everything throughout the years. Last night I watched their last performance on here and found it so haunting, especially since I have seen him as a solo artist, in Soundgarden and Audioslave and the beginning especially was so off... and that final song and guitar feedback... I know hindsight. But still. He was saying it that night, too. Even if part of the beginning was a sound check issue. It was written all over his performance and broke my heart in multiple ways. ..that nobody made sure he was ok, and his last performance I wish had been his masterpiece. But it did say soo much. If we only knew

@melinoeimmortal8242 7 лет назад

Still feeling so down about him.. Condolences to his family. He will always be remembered as an artist but also as a true HUMAN caring for others.
