Love Lies - Michael McDonald

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:
