I remember leaving
And sayin' my goodbyes
Could tell your promises
Were full of lies
Oh but when you told me, girl
You'd call me on the phone
You never meant a word
I should have known

Oh should have known, yeah

I said it's up to you
If we're to keep in touch
I knew that I was askin'
Far too much
Oh and though I've waited, baby
Just to hear you call
You never spent a single dime at all

You promised to call me
Said that you would phone
Never meant a single word
I really should have known
You promised to call me
Said that you would phone
Instead you went and left me
Waiting all alone

Let me tell you
Your time was up because
I knew what I should do
I couldn't bring myself
To run to you
Only one solution
In the pain I couldn't hide
The only remedy
Would hurt my pride

You promised to call me
Said that you would phone
Never meant a single word
I really should have known
You promised to call me
Said that you would phone
Instead you went and left me
Waiting all alone

I remember leaving you
And sayin' my goodbyes
Could tell your promises
Were full of lies
Oh but when you told me, girl
You'd call me on the phone
You never meant a word
I should have known

You promised to call me
Said that you would phone
Never meant a single word
I really should have known
You promised to call me
Said that you would phone
Instead you went and left me
Waiting all alone

I remember leaving you
Promised to call me
You never meant a single word
Promised to call me
I really should've known it
Promised to call me
Was I askin' too much
Promised to call me
I should've known it, baby
