Christiane Mathé - A Sack of Empty Promises

Uh, Baby, can you tell me why love is so much burning
Uh, Baby can you tell me, why love is so much hurting?
A sack of empty promises is not what I am deserving

Baby, when I met you once
You asked me for my love
You told me of your loneliness
And I gave you all my heart
Feeling so much pity
I filled yours with tenderness

But after some time I noticed
My own heart had shrunk so much
'Cause you didn't make an effort
To care with a loving touch

Baby, when I met you twice
You wanted all my money
You told me of your poverty
And I felt generosity
Feeling so much pity
I gave you all my savings

But after some time I noticed
My money had slipped away
And I was left alone with nothing
And friendless I was left to pay

Baby, when I met you again
You asked me to sing for you
You told me of your senseless life
And I sang the blues for you
Feeling so much pity
I sang with heart and soul

But after some time I noticed
My voice had been passing away
'Cause no one had been listening
To understand what I had to say

Uh, Baby, can you tell me, why love is so disappointing
Uh, Baby, can you tell me, why love is so destroying?
A sack of empty promises is not what I am deserving
