You promised me, you promised me life would be easy
Oh so easy to let it show
Now you see me stealing around like a stranger
Trying to whisper, I love you so
You promised me, you promised me our love would be precious
Love so precious, every way we'd go
You promised they would never think of putting us down
Look at us now, I guess you never know
Back to the barracks, hide and seek
Once we didn't dare to dream or speak
Back to the days we left behind in our minds, only in our minds
With time on our hands, life is so easy
Life is easy, with days to spare
Remember the endless summer nights of passion
Don't tell mama, cause she might care
Back to the barracks, hide and seek
Once we didn't dare to dream or speak
Back to the days we left behind in our minds, only in our minds
The night is sweet and happy, we're safe in the twilight
We used to be strong enough to share
We faced the careless crowd that we are part of
At times we felt like the perfect pair
Back to the barracks, hide and seek
Once we didn't dare to dream or speak
Back to the days we left behind in our minds, only in our minds
You promised me, you promised me love would be easy
Oh so easy to let it show
Now you see me stealing around like a stranger
Trying to whisper, I love you so
