Thought I found the right woman
To ease my troubled mind
You said you would be there for me baby
Til the end of time
Thought I had a chance to start all over
Said you'd be there every step of the way
But all I ever get
All I ever get is empty promises baby

Empty promises
As time went on we stayed together
I knew you would never change (never change)
Said you wouldn't break my heart like the others
And we would make it some day
Thought I had a chance to start all over
You said you would be there every step of the way
But all I ever get
All I ever get is empty promises baby

Empty promises baby

Umm umm hmm
You know I want you
Gotta have you baby
You know I need you
Empty promises
