Some love is just a lie of the heart
|
The cold remains of what began with a passionate start
|
And they may not want it to end
|
But it will it's just a question of when
|
I've lived long enough to have learned
|
The closer you get to the fire the more you get burned
|
But that won't happen to us
|
Because it's always been a matter of trust
|
|
I know you're an emotional girl
|
It took a lot for you to not lose your faith in this world
|
I can't offer you proof
|
But you're going to face a moment of truth
|
It's hard when you're always afraid
|
You just recover when another belief is betrayed
|
So break my heart of you must
|
It's a matter of trust
|
|
You can't go the distance
|
With too much resistance
|
I know you have doubts
|
But for God's sake don't shut me out
|
|
This time you've got nothing to lose
|
You can take it, you can leave it
|
Whatever you choose
|
I won't hold back anything
|
And I'll walk a way a fool or a king
|
Some love is just a lie of the mind
|
It's make believe until its only a matter of time
|
And some might have learned to adjust
|
But then it never was a matter of trust
|
|
I'm sure you're aware love
|
We've both had our share of
|
Believing too long
|
When the whole situation was wrong
|
|
Some love is just a lie of the soul
|
A constant battle for the ultimate state of control
|
After you've heard lie upon lie
|
There can hardly be a question of why
|
Some love is just a lie of the heart
|
The cold remains of what began with a passionate start
|
But that can't happen to us
|
Because it's always been a matter of trust
|
