I'Ll Let You Know

Invite someone to join you As you formalize your plans. Expect to get an answer – Gee, I wonder how that pans! “I’ll let you know,” he tells you, But that doesn’t help at all, Negating what you’d hoped to be The purpose of your call. What does that mean? Or better yet, Explain exactly - when? I’m sitting here and waiting But don’t want to call again. It’s really so annoying When your plans are put on hold ‘Cause someone else has grabbed the reins You thought that you controlled. “I’ll let you know” is one response I never should allow. The next time someone says it, I’ll say – “Let me know right now!”

I know just what you mean! They leave you hanging, (is it maybe hoping something better will come along?)
