You told me that I was like an angel

Told me I was fit to wear a crown

So that you could get a thrill

You put me on a pedestal

And then you let me down, let me down.

You told me that I'd be wearing diamonds

I would have the smartest car in town

Made me think that I'm the top

And then you let the ladder drop

You know you let me down, let me down

I was even looking for a cottage

I was measured for a wedding gown

That how I got cynical

You put me on a pinnacle

And then you let me down, let me down
