She never makes commitments She's never short of alibis When I ask the same old questions There's something missing in her life But what it is she won't say Listening to her promises Listen to those empty promises She never thinks about the future She lives from day to day Sometimes I have to wonder What kind of game she plays So much emotion in her eyes But so much emptiness inside I know she wants to give you everything I know I'm wasting my time Listening to her promises But when I hear those empty promises I see through her disguise Why do I listen to her empty promises Believing in all her lies Why will I listen to those empty promises She promised the world to me Tonight She promised to stay with me all night Tonight Listen to those empty promises
