| Ah, loving you is easy, you are on my side
|
| We played the game strictly to our rules
|
| We led the field, a love affair
|
| Which made all other lovers fools
|
| Oh, how can you ever let me down? |
| (Down)
|
| How can you ever let me down? |
| (Down)
|
| How can you ever let me down?
|
| These promises are made for us (A-ah, o-o-oh, oh-oh)
|
| We promised that we’d always have time for each other
|
| Whenever I needed, you’d be there
|
| We promised to be true, there’d be no other
|
| We promised that forever, we would care
|
| Oh, how can you ever let me down? |
| (Down)
|
| How can you ever let me down? |
| (Down)
|
| How can you ever let me down?
|
| These promises are made for us (A-ah, o-o-oh, oh-oh)
|
| We had to change, oh, but you stayed the same
|
| You wouldn’t change, oh, what a shame
|
| 'cause loving you’s not easy, you’re not on my side
|
| We play a game with two sets of rules
|
| We lead the field in a love affair
|
| Oh, strictly meant for fools
|
| Oh, why did you ever let me down? |
| (Down)
|
| Why did you ever let me down? |
| (Down)
|
| Why did you ever let me down?
|
| Those promises were made for us (A-Ah, o-o-oh, o-oh)
|
| You never have any time for me
|
| Whenever I need you, you’re not there
|
| You’ve never been true and it’s plain to see
|
| The fact is, you never really cared
|
| Oh, why did you ever let me down? |
| (Down)
|
| Why did you ever let me down? |
| (Down)
|
| Why did you ever let me down?
|
| Those promises, we made for us (A-Ah, o-o-oh, o-oh) |
