"Love Lies" lyrics

Read a page of your poetry
And say the lovers are you and me
It's a love lie, a pretty love lie
Lay with me when the day is done
And tell me I've been the only
It's a nice try, but it's a love lie

You tell love lies
And I know that's all they are
But you can make them
Sound so good to my heart
When you say our love is strong
And I will never find you gone
When I could listen all night long
To your love lies

You'd do the things that you know you should
And I don't mind 'cause you do 'em good
But your love lies thru your blue eyes
'Cause you can't hide how you feel inside
But still, you try 'cause you know I cry
Instead of goodbye, you tell me love lies

You tell love lies
And I know that's all they are
But, baby, you can make them
Sound so good to my heart
When you say our love is strong
And I will never find you gone
When I could listen all night long
To your love lies

Pretty love lies
You're telling love lies
Pretty love lies
Ooh, you're telling love lies...
