Promises And Lies

All the sorrow and the pain All the sacrifice in vain I was much too blind to see You make a loser out of me You put me down for oh so long While you sang your serpent's song [Chorus] The rest is history You can do no more to me I've been down so low Had nowhere left to go I could see it in your eyes All your promises were lies Promises and lies Your cut was quick and deep But then you thought you'd never need a friend But all things change, and tides must turn And you let all your bridges burn Too many fatal wounds to heal [Chorus] --- Promises and Lies - UB40
