Promises You Can't Keep
Lyrics
Let me down easy
Please string me along
I've got to maintain my habit
Oh, girl
Of your love
Your love alone
Cause my love for you is so deep
Seems like all I do is moan and weep
Going crazy over promises
You can't keep
You can't keep
Now here I am at the point of no return
Lovin' you
Is like a slow burn
It's like a furnace without no coal
Oh, Lord it's like you're throwing dirt on my soul
Cause my love for you is so deep
Seems like all I do is moan and weep
I'm losing sleep over promises
You can't keep
You can't keep
Oh, it's time to be moving on
Because I've been getting no love for so long
There's no other way it could have gone
Cause my love for you is so deep
Seems like all I do is moan and weep
Losing sleep over promises
You can't keep
Promises you can't keep
Promises you can't keep, no
Promises you can't keep
Promises, Promises, Promises, promises
You can't keep
Promises, Promises, Promises,
You can't keep
Promises, Promises
You can't keep
Let me down easy
Please string me along
I've got to maintain my habit
Oh, girl
Of your love
Your love alone
Cause my love for you is so deep
Seems like all I do is moan and weep
Going crazy over promises
You can't keep
You can't keep
Now here I am at the point of no return
Lovin' you
Is like a slow burn
It's like a furnace without no coal
Oh, Lord it's like you're throwing dirt on my soul
Cause my love for you is so deep
Seems like all I do is moan and weep
I'm losing sleep over promises
You can't keep
You can't keep
Oh, it's time to be moving on
Because I've been getting no love for so long
There's no other way it could have gone
Cause my love for you is so deep
Seems like all I do is moan and weep
Losing sleep over promises
You can't keep
Promises you can't keep
Promises you can't keep, no
Promises you can't keep
Promises, Promises, Promises, promises
You can't keep
Promises, Promises, Promises,
You can't keep
Promises, Promises
You can't keep
