Lyrics Promises - Joe Venuti & His New Yorkers

The things you promised me, tenderly, lovingly
Were they just meant to be promises?
The things you whispered of, were they true?
Was it love or were they only new promises?

All your vows seemed heaven sent, dear
All those vows you never meant, dear
I count them one by one, faithfully, though you've gone
Leaving me just promises
