CeeLo Green - You Promised Me Love lyrics

There once was a hopeless romantic Who'd give his heart away on a whim I am no longer him I'd rather not relive all her reasons All untimely, yet I understood My heart is broken for good Chorus: Cause you lie Tell me what happened to forever Instead of crying, I talk to the chair You told the world we'd always be together Now I'm the only one standing here I'm ashamed and angry at you all because I believed every word that you told me But you promised me love Promised me love, love, love Promised me love, love, love Promised me love, love, love I wanna compromise and be optimistic This is all of a sudden absurd But you gave me your word Love is a battle field, who won? Look at the casualty we've become How could you promise something that can't be done? Chorus: Cause you lie Tell me what happened to forever Instead of crying, I talk to the chair You told the world we'd always be together Now I'm the only one standing here I'm ashamed and angry at you all because I believed every word that you told me But you promised me love, love, love Promised me love, love, love Promised me love, love, love Promised me love, love, love You promised me love, love, love Promised me love, love, love, love
