ALISON KRAUSS LYRICS - Could You Lie

"Could You Lie"



Go on and lie I've heard it all before

You had no shame

This pain I feel you've never known

The rain outside is shifting in the wind

The road is looking lonelier

Alone again



Love is real

Then love goes on and on

The words you say condemn you

As the guilty one

I guess you're not the kind you claim to be

Always looking out to get your love for free



Could you lie and say you love me just a little

One more wrong will keep us one more night

When quiet fades at the light of day

I see the truth

It's on your face again



When morning breaks my heart won't understand

Spend a lifetime raising houses on the sand

The rain outside is shifting in the wind

The road is looking lonelier

Alone again



Could you lie and say you love me just a little

One more wrong will keep us one more night

When quiet fades at the light of day

I see the truth

It's on your face again
