Love Lies Testo

BY MICHAEL MCDONALD AND RANDY GOODRUM

WHAT'S THAT LYIN' ON HER PILLOW
FOLDED UP SO NEAT
WHAT ONCE WAS LOVE IS NOW A LETTER
LYING WHERE SHE USED TO SLEEP
OH, I THOUGHT LOVE WAS SOMETHING I COULD COUNT ON
BUT IT TOOK HER TO SHOW ME THAT

CHORUS:
LOVE LIES-RIGHT TO YOUR FACE
LOVE LIES-JUST WHEN I HAD FAITH
IT WOULD LET ME DOWN
I KNOW THAT LOVE LIES-RIGHT TO THE END
LOVE LIES-I KNOW THE WORD WILL NEVER MEAN THE SAME TO ME

WHAT'S THIS EMPTINESS INSIDE ME
WHERE HER PROMISE USED TO BE
SHE SAID SHE'D BE HERE TO GUIDE ME
I GUESS NOW THE JOKE'S ON ME
OH, I THOUGHT LOVE WAS SOMETHING LIKE DEVOTION
BUT IT TOOK HER TO SHOW ME THAT

CHORUS:

JUST WHEN YOU THINK YOU KNOW WHAT LOVE IS ABOUT
SOMEONE TAKES YOUR PLACE, AND YOU FIND THAT

CHORUS:
