Secrets and Lies

Pour me a drink of whatever you think might
help me feel half as good as you’re looking tonight
Throw me a line I’ll take as a sign
that we can’t make this thing on our own, not tonight, not tonight

This ain’t the same thing as me falling down
I hit the ground hurt my knee you start kissing my pain way, different day
This it the pain that grown ups feel,
the kind that can’t be kissed away and you know the difference is real

Secrets in your eyes, mother’s love, loyalty lines, Secrets and Lies, and more lies

You’re closing a door on the one you bore,
I don’t know you anymore, what am I to do with someone like you
come this way go away, I don’t know what to say
All I know is the lights in the town, they are fading down, fading down

Secrets in your eyes, mother’s love, loyalty lines, Secrets and Lies, and more lies

It’s been a year since last September, the craziest year that I care to remember
and I don’t know how you’re wearing your hair
you are the mother of my invention
to withhold your love with such bold intention
and what am I to do with someone like you?

Secrets in your eyes, mother’s love, loyalty lines, Secrets and Lies, and more lies

Pour me a drink of whatever you think might
help me feel half as good as you’re looking tonight
