Stephen Bard - Lying to Your Feet While the Truth Is in Your Hand

Lying to your feet
While the truth is in your hand
Nobody you meet
In a thousand miles
Can understand
What you're up against
Now you're fenced in
Lonelier than anybody else you know
Tell another lie
And it's time to do
Another show
And what do you do
When the whole thing
Turns on you?

You want to run away together
Say goodnight and stay forever
Make your bed and pray the weather
Holds out long enough to let you land
How much longer can you take it?
Making it alone and naked
How could you ever hope to fake it?
Lying to your feet
While the truth is in your hand

Points on your tongue
And opinions up your nose
None of them are yours
And you're wearing someone else's clothes
And a baby cries
With her daddy's eyes
Lonelier than anyone should ever be
Tell another lie
And then look at you
You're lost at sea
And what do you do
When they all depend on you?

You want to run away together
Say goodnight and stay forever
Make your bed and pray the weather
Holds out long enough to let you land
How much longer can you take it?
Making it alone and naked
How could you ever hope to fake it?
Lying to your feet
While the truth is in your hand
While the truth is in your hand

How much longer can you take it?
Making it alone and naked
How could you ever hope to fake it?
Lying to your feet
While the truth is in your hand
While the truth is in your hand
