you let me down

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 walked upon a rainbow

i clung onto a star

you had me up in heaven

that's why i had to tall so far

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

how you let me down
