Red Johnson - Things You Promised Me

You told me that we would never part
You said you would never break my heart
I heard you say our love would always be
What happened to the things you promised me

I believed each word I heard your sweet lips say
Till another came and sweet talked you away
Though you're gone the chains of love won't set me free
What happened to the things you promised me

Now tonight you're in the arms of someone new
And you're doing things you said you'd never do
While I'm all alone and deep in misery
What happened to the things you promised me

Every night I cry myself to sleep again
Every day I'm haunted by what might have been
And I wonder as I live each memory
What happened to the things you promised
Oh what happened to the things you promised me
