Donna Summer - Pandora's Box Lyrics






If I had known of what would come
I might have walked outta here a lot less harmed
But I'm no lady of the glass
And I can't foretell what will pass

And I went with my defenses down
As your love sent me spinning spinning 'round
Oh you took me to the very top
And then I took a bad (and) long long drop

Oh promises are made to be broken
That's all I ever learned from loving you
And oh when you opened up your love to me
You opened up Pandora's box

Oh promises are made to bend and stretch oh
And end up being really worthless
And oh when I opened up the door to you
I opened up Pandora's box

Just one look and I knew you knew
I was all hung up hung up on loving you
I just put all my trust in love
And I placed a big old bet on lady love
I was sentenced to loving you
And I'm serving time in solitude
Yeah I gave ya everything that I got
And you took it all and walked right off

Oh promises are made to be broken
That's all I ever learned from loving you
And oh when you opened up your love to me
You opened up Pandora's box

Oh promises are made to bend and stretch oh
And end up being really worthless
And oh when I opened up the door to you
I opened up Pandora's box

Just one look and I knew you knew
I was all hung up hung up on loving you
I just put all my trust in love
And I placed a big old bet on lady love

Oh promises are made to be broken
That's all I ever learned from loving you
And oh when you opened up your love to me
You opened up Pandora's box

Oh promises are made to bend and stretch oh
And end up being really worthless
And oh when I opened up the door to you
I opened up Pandora's box

Oh promises are made to be broken
That's all I ever learned from loving you
And oh when you opened up your love to me
You opened up Pandora's box

Oh promises are made to bend and stretch oh
And en up being really worthless

Donna Summer Pandora's Box Comments
  1. s.... ....

    I remember buying this album in 1976 and hearing the voice on this song. After listening to the first four songs sung in Donna's breathy soprano, I thought, "Who is this?". Then, I realized it was her! Been a fan ever since!

  2. T.... ....

    This lovely lady could sing any genre with those gilded pipes of hers, even though she was known as the “Queen of Disco”. Even people who don’t like Disco appreciate Moroder and Donna Summer. She was an angel, and a stunningly beautiful woman. My heart shattered to pieces when I learned of her passing.

  3. J.... H....

    Took me 40 years to appreciate the B side of her first album, really. I was 13 when it was released and I bought it. Still have it! Love Whispering Waves!

    Podría ser la mejor canción de su primer álbum. Hermosa melodía para una voz privilegiada como la de Donna Summer. Este álbum la lanza a la fama para llegar a convertir en la Reyna del Disco, la Diva, la inmortal... Su voz y su memoria perdurarán por siempre. Que gran regalo para la música de todos los tiempos la voz de Donna  Summer (Andrea Gaines)
