I have a tale to tell Sometimes it gets so hard to hide it well
I was not ready for the fall Too blind to see the writing on the wall
A man can tell a thousand lies I've learned my lesson well
Hope I live to tell The secret I have learned, 'till then It will burn inside of me
I know where beauty lives I've seen it once, I know the warmth she gives
The light that you could never see It shines inside, you can't take that from me
A man can tell a thousand lies I've learned my lesson well
Hope I live to tell The secret I have learned, 'till then It will burn inside of me
The truth is never far behind You kept it hidden well
If I live to tell The secret I knew then Will I ever have the chance again
If I ran away I'd never have the strength To go very far
How would they hear The beating of my heart
Will it grow cold The secret that I hide, Will I grow old
How will they hear When will they learn How will they know
A man can tell a thousand lies I've learned my lesson well
Hope I live to tell The secret I have learned, 'till then It will burn inside of me
The truth is never far behind You kept it hidden well
If I live to tell The secret I knew then Will I ever have the chance again |
