No-one ever promised anything,
No-one every promised you anything
So keep your eyes wide open,
And your heart well-guarded
And you mouth firmly closed,
No it's just not supposed to be
Simple or fair... simple or fair...
No-one gets something for nothing,
No-one is something for nothing
So keep yourself intact,
Your emotions in check
And your feelings well-pent,
No it's just never meant to be
Easy or true... easy or true...
And trust is earned not bought
And love isn't burned it's sought
But no-one speaks the truth anymore
No-one speaks the truth...
So keep your eyes wide open,
And your heart well-guarded
And your mouth firmly closed, no it's just not supposed to be
Simple or fair... simple or fair...
And trust is earned not bought
And love isn't burned it's sought
But no-one speaks the truth anymore
No-one speaks the truth... anymore...
