Gary Puckett & The Union Gap

Transposer:

Don’t Make Promises:Gary Puckettt And The Union Gap. Flip-side of Woman Woman which hit #4 on BB Hot 100 and #48 UK Charts on COLUMBIA REcords in 1967. INTRO: #1. It seems the songs we’re singing are all about tomorrow.. tunes of promises that we can’t keep. Every moment bringing a love I can only borrow you’re telling me lies in your sleep. BRIDGE: Do you think I’m not aware of what you’re saying or why you’re saying it? Is it hard to keep me where you want me staying? Don’t go on betraying..don’t make promises that you can’t keep. #2. We had a chance to find it our time was now or never.. you promised me things that I need. And then the things behind it took away the chance forever you’re telling me lies in your sleep. BRIDGE: Do you think I’m not aware of what you’re saying or why you’re saying it? Is it hard to keep me where you want me staying? Don’t go on betraying..don’t make promises that you can’t keep. OUTRO: Don’t make promises that you can’t keep. (Don’t make promises that you can’t keep.) Don’t make promises that you can’t keep. C#m E (Don’t make promises that you can’t keep.) Don’t make promises that you can’t keep. C#m E (Don’t make promises that you can’t keep.) Don’t make promises that you can’t keep. C#m E (Don’t make promises that you can’t keep.)..(Fade.)

Cette chanson aborde le thème des promesses non tenues et des illusions dans une relation amoureuse. Le protagoniste ressent une profonde déception face aux mots embellis qui ne se concrétisent pas, créant ainsi un sentiment de trahison. Il s'interroge sur la sincérité de son partenaire et réalise que les belles paroles ne suffisent pas si elles ne s’accompagnent pas d'actions réelles. Elle a été publiée à la fin des années 60, une période marquée par des changements sociaux et des réflexions sur les relations. Cela reflète bien les désillusions amoureuses de l'époque, tout en mettant en lumière une quête universelle de vérité et d'authenticité dans les engagements.
