I think the song The Promise is a play on the stories of Romeo & Juliette, The Last of the Mohicans, as well as some complicated personal drama. Star-Crossed Lovers facing impossible odds, negotiating difficult circumstances, ultimately hoping against hope that everything will be fine and they will find each other. The war theme could be applied to any war past, present, or future where people have to search the world to find each other again.
