Ah loving you is easy
you are on my side
we play 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?
How can you ever
let me down?
How can you ever
let me down?
these promises
are made for us
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?
How can you ever
let me down?
How can you ever
let me down?
these promises
are made for us
We had to change
But you stayed the same
You wouldn't change
Oh what a shame.....
'Cos 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
ah strictly meant
for fools
Oh
Why did you ever
let me down?
Why did you ever
let me down?
Why did you ever
let me down?
those promises
were made for us
You never have
any time for me
whenever I need you
you're not there
You've never been true
and its plain to see
the fact is you never
really cared
Oh
Why did you ever
let me down?
Why did you ever
let me down?
Why did you ever
let me down?
those promises
we made for us
