Promise

Have you ever done anything like this before?

Have you ever done anything like this before?

If you’ve never done anything like this before, then you haven’t been alive

Have you ever shut all the open doors

Have you ever just walked on out on your own

Have you ever just lost your mind when you try to unwind or are you coming right back for more?

I’m here tonight

Promise me you’ll hold me till I die

I’m by your side

Promise me it’s gonna, promise me it’s gonna be alright

Ah-oh, ah-oh, ah-oh, ah-oh-oh-oh

Promise me it’s gonna be alright.

Ah-oh, ah-oh, ah-oh, ah-oh-oh-oh

Promise me it’s gonna be alright.

Have you ever been alone too much

Have you ever prayed for human touch

Have you ever just lost a little part of you to find a little something new?

Cross my heart

Till the sky turns red in the sunrise

Since you told me everything's alright.

Ah-oh, ah-oh, ah-oh, ah-oh-oh-oh

Since you told me everything's alright.

Ah-oh, ah-oh, ah-oh, ah-oh-oh-oh

Promise me it’s gonna be alright.

I’m here tonight

Promise me you’ll hold me till I die

I’m by your side

Promise me it’s gonna, promise me it's gonna, promise me it’s gonna be alright

Ah-oh, ah-oh, ah-oh, ah-oh-oh-oh

Ah-oh, ah-oh, ah-oh, ah-oh-oh-oh

Alright!

Cross my heart

Till the sky turns red in the sunrise

Promise me it’s gonna be alright

Be alright! Alright!

Voyager is a progressive metal band from Perth, Western Australia, formed in 1999. The band has released seven full-length albums. Their seventh full-length studio album, Colours in the Sun, was released worldwide on 1 November 2019 on the French American metal record label “Season of Mist”.

The band has gone through several line-up changes since its beginning. Current members are: Daniel Estrin (vocals, keys), Simone Dow (guitars), Scott Kay (guitars), Ashley Doodkorte (drums) and Alex Canion (bass, vocals).

Voyager were shortlisted to represent Australia at the Eurovision Song Contest 2020 with Runaway, but were ultimately not chosen as one of the ten acts to compete in the final of the selection. Two years later the band were selected to take part in the Australian national selection for Eurovision 2022, "EurovisionAustralia Decides". They placed second with their song Dreamer. Following its performance on Eurovision - Australia Decides, the song debuted at number 6 on the Australian Independent Label Singles chart.

On 21 February 2023, it was announced that Voyager were internally selected to represent Australia in the Eurovision Song Contest 2023 with the song Promise.
