10,000 Promises Lyrics
Once we were lovers
Just lovers we were oh what a lie
Once we were dreamers
Just dreamers we were oh you and I
Now I see you're just somebody
Who wastes all my time and money
What a lie
You and I
What about your
Your 10,000 promises?
That you gave to me
Your 10,000 promises
That you promised me
Once I could handle the truth
When the truth was you and I
But time after time all the promises
Turned out to be all lies
And now, now I see that you're somebody
Who wasted my time and money
What lie, oh what a lie (what a lie)
Oh you, you and I, oh you and I
What about your
Your 10,000 promises?
That you gave to me (to me, babe)
Your 10,000 promises
That you promised me
You say I'll take you back
But I close the door
'Cause I don't want 10,000 more
10,000 promises yeah
10,000 promises you gave to me
What about your
Your 10,000 promises?
That you gave to me
Your 10,000 promises
That you promised me
(what about your)
Your 10,000 promises (10,000 promises you gave to me)
That you gave to me (what about your)
Your 10,000 promises
(what about your 10,000 promises you gave to me?)
Once we were lovers
Just lovers we were
You and I
What a lie
Just lovers we were oh what a lie
Once we were dreamers
Just dreamers we were oh you and I
Now I see you're just somebody
Who wastes all my time and money
What a lie
You and I
Your 10,000 promises?
That you gave to me
Your 10,000 promises
That you promised me
When the truth was you and I
But time after time all the promises
Turned out to be all lies
And now, now I see that you're somebody
Who wasted my time and money
What lie, oh what a lie (what a lie)
Oh you, you and I, oh you and I
Your 10,000 promises?
That you gave to me (to me, babe)
Your 10,000 promises
That you promised me
But I close the door
'Cause I don't want 10,000 more
10,000 promises you gave to me
Your 10,000 promises?
That you gave to me
Your 10,000 promises
That you promised me
(what about your)
Your 10,000 promises (10,000 promises you gave to me)
That you gave to me (what about your)
Your 10,000 promises
(what about your 10,000 promises you gave to me?)
Just lovers we were
You and I
What a lie

This is all I have to say to all the TRUE BSB FANS: KTBSPA 4 EVER!! KTBSPA! KEVIN BRIAN AJ HOWIE NICK
Get laid, bitch! These dudes are really gay!
this song is simply the best.
My favorite off their import. This girl promised him everything and now he wants to know where that all went.
GNRTOM don't u dare say anything bad about them. Your just jealous. Brian is my favorite and he wrote this song, they harmonize very well together, I AM THE NUMBER ONE BRIAN FAN:)
Just to wind things up a little: Backstreet boys (N*sync, A1, Britney Spears and all that industrial pop-crap) is NOT, and I state, NOT music. I don't have any problems with people who listens to it, but I would have to shoot myself if I ever listen to it, and enjoy it. They don't write their own songs and music, they pay some rich ass label-owner to do it, and then they make a lot of money. Its truely, truely 100% FAKE, and they get air-time on radio and mtv because they have tons of money, when real bands who makes their own non-fake music, haven't got so much cash to pay for air-time. Its just wrong!!! I know people proberbly don't give a fuck about my opinion, and that you don't have to agree with me, but this is what I think. If you want to support music the way it should be, then don't buy any of that plastic-fake pop-flop "music". Get this...
This song is so beautiful. It's okay to think that what the Backstreet Boys do is fake. Although that is false, if people think that it is true and they do not like the Backstreet Boys (for whatever reason) then, they should be able to express themselves as those who do like the Backstreet Boys express themselves. I particularly like BSB. Even though I respect everyone else's thoughts on them, that doesn't mean I have to share in them.
jessie
this song brings back memoriesssss lol
One of their better early ballads. Shame it was just an import one. They always are the best!!
