Alison Krauss And Union Station – Could You Lie lyrics

(Ron Block)

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.

--- Instrumental ---

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.

--- Instrumental to fade ---
