Promises, Promises

You've promised you would be true to me

But we both know you could never be

You've been puttin' you on since the day we met

Promises, promises, that's all I ever get, that's all I ever get

Then you promised me a ring

A weddin' gown and all of them things

But I ain't seen no diamond yet

Promises, promises, that's all I ever get, that's all I ever get

Promises, promises, that's all I get

All you gave me since the day we met

You break my heart in two again, I'll bet

But promises, promises, that's all I ever get, that's all I ever get

And now you tell me you've gone away

You swear to me that this time you'll stay

But I can't believe that I'm rid of you yet

Promises, promises, that's all I ever get, that's all I ever get

Promises, promises, that's all I get

All you gave me since the day we met

You break my heart in two again, I'll bet

Promises, promises, that's all I ever get, that's all I ever get

Promises, promises, that's all I get

All you gave me since the day we met
