The Cure

The Cure are an English rock band formed in Crawley, West Sussex in 1976. The band has experienced several line-up changes, with frontman, vocalist, guitarist and principal songwriter Robert Smith being the only constant member. The Cure first began releasing music in the late 1970s with its debut album Three Imaginary Boys (1979); this, along with several early singles, placed the band as part of the post-punk and New Wave movements that had sprung up in the wake of the punk rock revolution in the United Kingdom. During the early 1980s, the band's increasingly dark and tormented music helped form the gothic rock genre. more »

How time will heal
Make me forget
You promised me
Time will heal

Make me forget
You promised me
Love will save us all
And time will heal

You promised me...

How love will save
Make me forget
You promised me
Love will save

Make me forget
You promised me
Time will heal us all
And love will save

You promised me...

I trusted you
I wanted your words
Believed in you
I needed your words

Time will heal
Make me forget
And love will save us all
You promised me another wish

Another way
You promised me another dream
Another day
You promised me another time

You promised me another life
You promised me...

So I swallowed the shame and I waited
I buried the blame and I waited
Choked back years of memories...
I pushed down the pain and I waited

Trying to forget...

You promised me another wish
Another way
You promised me another dream
Another day

You promised me another time
You promised me...
Another lie
Oh you promised me...

You promised me... you promised me
And I waited... and I waited... and I waited...
And I'm still waiting...
