Promises, Promises
(August 10, 2010)

 

 

So we met and you told me
That you’ve been waiting for me
All your life (all your life)
I believed all these words and
Thought that you were the one and
Now I know (now I know)
It was all a lie

 

Promises, promises
Are only promises
You never intend to keep
You think that your flattery
Will get you in bed with me
But that’s never gonna be
So might as well stop it, drop it
Cause you’ll never get with me

 

So you told me you love me
That you would never leave me
No good-byes (no good-byes)
And I thought that was real
That our love was the seal
Made for life (made for life)
Forever you’re mine

 

Promises, promises
Are only promises
You never intend to keep
You think that your flattery
Will get you in bed with me
But that’s never gonna be
So might as well stop it, drop it
Cause you’ll never get with me

 

If you wanted to get
A girl into your pants
Should have thought of that
Before you made your plans
Cause I’m not that kind of girl
Things with me will not unfurl
And no matter what you say to me
I will never fall for your flattery

 

Promises, promises
Are only promises
You never intend to keep
You think that your flattery
Will get you in bed with me
But that’s never gonna be
So might as well stop it, drop it
Cause you’ll never get with me

Great lyrics and I'm sure there's music to go with it. A gal type Country Western.

I like the brutal truth of this one, how you are not afraid to say what is on your mind. Promises aren't always kept and vows of love aren't always life long...well done Lena.

A sad song in a way but a very real and seemingly timeless theme in this world/life. Thanks for sharing, Lena. Love and best wishes,

Regis
