Live to Tell Lyrics

I have a tale to tell
Sometimes it gets so hard to hide it well
I was not ready for the fall
To blind
To see the writing on the wall

Chorus :
A man can tell a thousand lies
I've learned my lesson well
Hope I live to tell the secret I have learned
Till then it will burn inside of me

I know where beauty lives
I've seen it once
I know the one she gives
The light that you could never see
It shines inside
You can't take that from me

Repeat Chorus

The truth is never far behind
You kept it hidden well
If I live to tell the secret I knew then
Will I ever have the chance again

If I ran away I'd never have
The strenght to go very far
How would they hear the beating of my heart
Will it go cold
The secret I hide
Will it grow old
How would they hear
When will they learn
How would they know

Repeat Chorus
The truth is never far behind
You kept it hidden well
If I live to tell the secret I knew then
Will I ever have the chance again
