Shattered Dreams Lyrics by The Endeavors

I Know You Don’t Want Me ‎(7", Single, Promo)

1970

[Intro]
Dream
Dream
Dream
[Verse 1]
(Do) This is a dream that I wanted
(Do) Long before you
(Do) To capture your heart was my desire (Do)
[Pre-Chorus]
(Ah, ah) I don't wanna seem ungrateful
(Ah) But you know, but you know
(Ah) You are not faithful
[Chorus]
You (You)
Pretended to love me so much (Pretended so much)
(Oh, oh, oh) So much
(You shattered my dream) You shattered my dream
(Oh, boo) Yes, you did
[Verse 2]
(Do) It’s a shame
(Do) The dream I once cherished
(Do) Has now slowly perished
(Ah) When I was little
(Ah) My eyes glowed with glitter
(Ah) But since that day
(Ah) I've been cold and bitter
[Chorus]
You, you, you (You pretended to love me so much)
(Pretended so much) So much
You, you shattered my dream
Yes, you did
[Verse 3]
(Memories can always last forever) Memories can always last forever
(Do) *Well, even though*
(Do-do) *My dreams were shattered* (Ooh)
(A dream is like) A dream is like a dead letter (A dead letter)
Sometimes things, they get worse
Before they get better, yeah
You, you, you (You pretended to love me so much)
(Pretended so much) So much
You, you shattered my dream
Yes, you did (Oh, boo)
[Refrain]
(You shattered my dream) I don't want to seem ungrateful (Oh, boo)
(You shattered my dream) But you know, but you know (Oh, boo)
You are not faithful (You shattered my dream)
Take your time
