Take That
Promises
[Verse 1]
Standing back I can't believe
How you've led me on
And judging by the things you say
There's gotta be something wrong

[Pre-Chorus]
What you telling me that for
When you don't mean it
What you telling me that for
I don't believe it

[Chorus]
Your promises have never been
Anything you made them seem
So what you gonna promise me this time
You're telling lies, so plain to see
You're trying to make a fool of me
So what you gonna promise me this time
I wanna know

[Verse 2]
Seems like I've been playing your game
And how you think you've won
But when you count up what you've gained
You're the lonely one
[Pre-Chorus]
What you telling me that for
When you don't mean it
What you telling me that for
I don't believe it

[Chorus]
Your promises have never been
Anything you made them seem
So what you gonna promise me this time
You're telling lies, so plain to see
You're trying to make a fool of me
So what you gonna promise me this time
Your promises have never been
Anything you made them seem
So what you gonna promise me this time
You're telling lies, so plain to see
You're trying to make a fool of me
So what you gonna promise me this time
I'll never know

[Pre-Chorus]
What you telling me that for
When you don't mean it
What you telling me that for
I don't believe it
[Chorus]
Your promises have never been
Anything you made them seem
So what you gonna promise me this time
You're telling lies, so plain to see
You're trying to make a fool of me
So what you gonna promise me this time
Your promises, promises, promises
So what you gonna promise me this time
You're telling lies, telling lies, telling lies
So what you gonna promise me this time
Your promises have never been
Anything you made them seem
So what you gonna promise me this time
You're telling lies, so plain to see
You're trying to make a fool of me
So what you gonna promise me this time
