I believed in you They tell me that love is blind No, I never knew That you would leave me behind I was a fool to think that we Would last eternity Now I'm standin' here alone You told me everything To get me to string along You promised me anything And sang me the same old song I never gave you any doubt Never thought that you'd walk out 'Cause I took you at your word Promises, promises I been receivin' You tell me that you'll always stay Promises, promises keep me believin' In somethin' that's gone away The last time I saw your face You said I was the only one But somebody took my place And it seemed like we'd just begun I was a fool to think that we Would last eternity Now I'm standin' here alone Promises, promises I been receivin' You tell me that you'll always stay Promises, promises keep me believin' In somethin' that's gone away Promises, promises tenderly spoken Your love was just a masquerade Promises, promises were made to be broken You broke every one you made Promises, promises I been receivin' You tell me that you'll always stay Promises, promises keep me believin' In somethin' that's gone away Promises, promises I been receivin' You tell me that you'll always stay Promises, promises keep me believin' In somethin' that's gone away Promises, promises I been receivin' You tell me that you'll always stay Promises, promises keep me believin' In somethin' that's gone away Promises, promises I been receivin' You tell me that you'll always stay Promises, promises keep me believin' In somethin' that's gone away
