Promises, Promises

Promises, Promises



When I met you baby

I promised to make you mine

I promised I’d be there for you

Whenever you needed my time

And to this day that promise

Was one that I held to

I was hoping that my promise

Would keep me near to you



Promises promises,

We all make them that’s true

But the promise of my promise

Was my way of loving you



We became much closer

Our intent was on display

We were a committed couple

Together every day

You told me that you loved me

You promised you would stay

Our future was looking brighter

Getting better every day



Promises, promises,

We all make them that’s true

But the promise of your promise

Would only make me blue



Chorus:

A promise can be given

A Promise can be kept

A promise can be broken

A Promsie can be wept



A promise can be made

A promise can be implied

Your promise of our future

Was a promise denied



Promises, promises

You promised to be true

But the promise of your promise

Would only make me blue



Now little did I know

There was trouble up ahead

You found another lover

Someone you’d rather love instead

You didn’t think about the promise

To always be true to me

You only thought about the promise

Of what another could be



Promises, can be real

And then maybe not

When you promised me forever

I guess you just forgot



Promises, promises

You promised to be true

But the promise of your promise

Would only make me blue
