I loved you yesterday
but today it's just slipped away
and tomorrow may be a maybe
cuz in this world there can be no promises
still we try, we try in vain
saying things we know can't be
oh just to ease the pain'
and I said I'd love you forever
and you said the same
now we lie in our separate beds
and we cry the nights away
they filled me with the American Dream
some rich man's clever scheme
because rich is rich and poor is poor
a never ending theme
cuz in this work there can be no promises
still you lie right to my face
saying things you know can't be
just to keep me in my place
and you say I can be anything
but you forget the rest
that only a lucky few
will ever pass your test
you say I should just relax
build my dreams out of pretty wax
while you hold the sun
behind your backs
