BACKSEAT PROMISES
Marvin Adcock / Heather Morris

I thought it was love but it never lasted
When things got said in the heat of passion
That's not the kind I'm waiting for
It's gotta be something real, something more

Then backseat promises, the kind you make and then forget
I want a love that burns longer than an after cigarette
Someone who'll be there at dawn, who's in it for the long haul
Who means every word he says, not just backseat promises

Don't say you want more, than just this long weekend
Don't tell me you'll call, unless you really mean it
Cause unless you're dying to tell your friends
Everything about me baby all this is

Is backseat promises, the kind you make and then forget
I want a love that burns longer than an after cigarette
Someone who'll be there at dawn, who's in it for the long haul
Who means every word he says, not just backseat promises

If mañana, your Tony Lamas, are still beside the bed
You just might be, more than just skin deep, and mean everything you said

Not backseat promises, the kind you make and then forget
I want a love that burns longer than an after cigarette
Someone who'll be there at dawn, who's in it for the long haul
Who means every word he says, not just backseat promises

Backseat promises

Backseat promises
