Lies on Your Lips

Lies on your lips, I have tasted
Lies on your lips, now we've wasted
Too many nights on pointless fights
When you come home

Lies on your lips, sweet and cloying
Lies on your lips are destroying
The only peace, the only trust
I've ever known

Once when the words on your lips were, "I do"
They went down like fine mellow brandy
But now that I find they mean nothing to you
They've melted like spun sugar candy

There werе sighs on your lips when you held me
Now goodbyеs on your lips have propelled me
Into the arms, into the arms
Of someone new
Who won't say a word
But, "My lips would never lie to you"

Once when the words on your lips were, "My dear"
Each drop was a ? to savour
But now they've been poured in too many an ear
And leave such a bittersweet flavour

There were sighs on your lips when you held me
Now goodbyes on your lips have propelled me
Into the arms, into the arms
Of someone new
Who won't say a word
But, "My lips would never lie to you"
