Buzzcocks The Promises Lyrics

Promises Lyrics

Ah loving you is easy you are on my side

 We play the game strictly to our rules

 We led the field a love affair

 Which made all other lovers fools

 

 Oh

 How can you ever let me down

 How can you ever let me down

 How can you ever let me down

 These promises are made for us

 

 We promised that we'd always have time for each other

 Whenever i needed you'd be there

 We promised to be true there'd be no other

 We promised that for ever we would care

 

 Oh

 How can you ever let me down

 How can you ever let me down

 How can you ever let me down

 These promises are made for us

 

 We had to change

 But you stayed the same

 You wouldn't change

 Oh what a shame

 

 Cos loving you's not easy you're not on my side

 We play a game with two sets of rules

 We lead the field in a love affair

 Ah strictly meant for fools

 

 Oh

 Why did you ever let me down

 Why did you ever let me down

 Why did you ever let me down

 Those promises were made for us

 

 You never have any time for me

 Whenever i need you you're not there

 You've never been true and it's plain to see

 The fact is you never really cared

 

 Oh

 Why did you ever let me down

 Why did you ever let me down

 Why did you ever let me down

 Those promises we made for us
