"False-Hearted Lover" lyrics

False-hearted lover brought you to my arms
Did she really do me any harm?
False-hearted lover brought you to me
Oh, baby, can't you see?

When someone tells you who they are
You best be listening hard
There was a season now it's gone
No use in hanging on
I'm right where I belong
No use in hanging on

I was drowning in the smoke, babe
The perfume and the fog
Of all the lies you told me
And those are just the ones I caught
My false-hearted lover

We were born to be desired
With a naked sky on fire
Conceived before the light
She said, "Baby, do I hear you right?"

Now, babe, I must confess
I don't love you any less
But like a muscle that you tore
I don't love you any more

I was drowning in the smoke, babe
The perfume and the fog
Of all the lies you told me
And those are just the ones I caught

You ask me why I'm crying
You say, "What are you crying for?"
Well, it's not because you lied, baby
It's that I can't trust you anymore
My false-hearted lover
