I could've stood to watch you walk away
And put it down to your uncertain ways
Or maybe baby it had a change of heart
Maybe wanna make a brand new start
Crazy though what I say may seem
I coulda learned to mend these broken dreams
You coulda pushed I would have gently fell
I could have played the graceful one so well
What did you say
You were gonna leave me anyway
Any fool can see
See what you've done to me
And your love turns to lies
The actor played the part of sweet desire
And tiptoed out upon the highest wire
The truth to tell upon a rope too thin
So the fall of treachery begins
I know to see the starlit smiling face
So eagerly awaits to take the place
I try to fall in a clean and graceful way
You should have said I would have given way
And what's that you say
You were gonna lead me anyway
Any fool can see
See what you've done to me
And I see him smile
The way that I smile
And I hear him laugh
The way that I do
But I hear him screaming
And I hear him cry
And I see him falling
When your love turns to lies
What can you say
You were gonna leave me anyway
Any fool can see
See what you've done to me
And your love turns to lies
And your love turns to life
