Don't Promise Her Love

You can send her pretty flowers

That were freshly picked in spring

You can write her some romantic song

That your heart would gladly sing

You could gift a star from heaven 

One that twinkles high above

But I'm telling you, as a friend would do

Don't promise her love

She will leave you in an instant

She will break your heart in two

She will walk right out the nearest door

Then she'll find somebody new

It's a lesson that i once learned 

And a devil you will see

She plays it cool, and makes a fool

Like the fool she made of me

You can buy that girl a necklace

You can buy that girl a ring

You can take her to the fashion shops 

Let her choose 'bout anything

You can fly her on a holiday

Where the sun shines bright above

But I'm telling you, as a friend would do

Don't promise her love

She will leave you in an instant

She will break your heart in two

She will walk right out the nearest door

Then she'll find somebody new

It's a lesson that i once learned 

And a devil you will see

She plays it cool, and makes a fool

Like she did one time to me

You can hire her a carriage 

Take a horse ride in the park

You can even steal a tender kiss

When the daylight turns to dark

You can walk her to the doorstep 

While the moon smiles up above

But I'm telling you, as a friend would do

Don't promise her love

She will leave you in an instant

She will break your heart in two

She will walk right out the nearest door

And she'll find somebody new

It's a lesson that i once learned 

And a devil you will see

She plays it cool, and makes a fool

Of the likes of you and me
