Kris Kristofferson - The promise (1993)

Музыка

What a beautiful song...
In his concerts Kris says he wrote this song for his kids... and their mamas...
The promise
You gave me back my soul again by showing me
The laughter and the wonder in your eyes
Saved me from the shuttered man I used to be
Opened up the windows of my life
And the happiness you've given me for loving you
Is sweeter love and deeper every day
I can't stop the changes that you're growing through
Or someone new from stealing you away
Chorus:
So darling when it's time you can spread your wings
And I'll set you free - to fly away - and it's ok
'Cause darling, time changes everything
But it won't change me
I love you - oh... I love you
Inside of me you'll always be my valentine
I pray your freedom makes your dreams come true
As long as there's a heartbeat in this soul of mine
You'll know there's someone so in love with you
Chorus:
So darling when it's time you can spread your wings
And I'll set you free - to fly away - and it's ok
'Cause darling time changes everything
But it won't change me
I love you - oh... I love you
A moment of forever (1995, Justice Records)

    I have listened to Kris Kristofferson for many years, there's something about his voice in the stories in his songs that's just moves you, I sing some of his songs and I just love singing them, thanks Kris for all the songs that you have given us🎸💌

    I am awed every time I hear his words. He is one of the greatest poets of my generation. I saw him in person a few years ago. I sat alone in the theatre and mouthed the words to every song. He stood alone on the stage and sang for 2 hours with just his guitar and harmonica. He doesn't need back-up singers or musicians. Kris is a gift we have been given for our borrowed moment of time.

    Emma Feix Alberts It's kinda sad how life has rook it's toll on him. Although even at 50-60 he looked he was in his 40s. So I'd say life has been good to him especially after having smoked and drank good part of his life. he's def lived his life and I think there's that little some about him tgat separates him from the rest.

    I watched Kris play this amazing song on Roskilde Festival this summer. All alone on the Orange Stage, his charisma and beautiful songs was enough to make it my Roskilde Moment of 2013. This is a man who doesn't need backtracking, lightshows, dancers og any of that. His music is that great. I don't think I was the only one who shed a tear...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Moment_of_Forever I only know this song from the remarkable album detailed above, which is my absolute favourite (UK spelling) of KK's. Without doubt, I don't agree with ALL his politics but, as a songwriter and the child of an immigrant, who also saw active service, was a helicopter pilot, was a Rhodes (Oxford University - UK) scholar [as well as playing rugby union and as a boxer] and also became a janitor (which brought him a songwriting contract). This man is both Mr Multi-tasker and a sound human being. I haven't even mentioned his acting...

    seems I've missed this comment of you, sorry. I took the scenes from the DVD His life and his work, and I think the sound is also from it, so I just put in some stills. I'm not sure, it's more than 3 years ago lol yes, it must be that, because the album song is a bit different as I've just checked...
