"Promises" lyrics

"Promises"

You told me you'd always be there
To hold my hand, show me you care
I opened up and gladly shared your
Promises, promises, promises

You said I'm yours and you'd always be mine
Stay with me till the end of time
Turns out you're a cheat
And you're also lying
False promises, promises, promises

Your word means nothing at all to me
Not worth the paper it's written on
Empty gestures is what you do best
It's all about you and what you can get
Can't you give it a rest

You hurt me with all your lies
Inside I swear you made me die
I would never let you see me cry
I promise, I promise, I promise

Promises, promises

Deception where's your truth now
Such a fool to believe a word from your mouth
Live and learn, put it down to experience
Twist our words just for your convenience

Promises, promises

You told me you'd always be there
To hold my hand, show me you care
I opened up and gladly shared your
Promises, promises, promises
