You, You knew how to soothe me

Like the sound of rain on a sleepy afternoon

All those perfect promises

They all disappeared....

I'd rather face some lonely nights

Have a couple long hard cries

Even fall apart inside

Than be wrapped up in your gorgeous lies

Everything I thought I knew

I'd rather face the bitter truth

Than be wrapped up in your gorgeous lies...

Oh, beautiful deception

And forgive myself

For bein so blind
