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 endBut 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 usBecause 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 proofBut you're going to face a moment of truth
It's hard when you're always afraid
You just recover when another belief is betrayedSo break my heart if you must
It's a matter of trustYou can't go the distanceWith too much resistance
I know you have doubtsBut for God's sake don't shut me out
This time you've got nothing to loseYou can take it, you can leave it
Whatever you chooseI won't hold back anything
And I'll walk a way a fool or a kingSome 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 adjustBut then it never was a matter of trust
I'm sure you're aware, love,We've both had our share ofBelieving too long
When the whole situation was wrongSome love is just a lie of the soul
A constant battle for the ultimate state of control
After you've heard lie upon lieThere 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 cant' happen to usBecause it's always been a matter of trust
