Loving You was a Lying Game

Loving you was a lying game
truth and lies were all the same
I hovered near your made-up flame
blinded by my own grand passion

your love was painted without shame
whether it was a lie, didn't matter
your words delivered were so sincere
I loved you, worshipped your name

I saw through you when you smiled
through me to a woman I knew
she was my friend since I was a child
to her you transferred your love anew

beneath the colours of your love
you changed sheets and beds
you swore to the heavens above
your love for me in your heart imbued

it was her lustful allure that lured you
it was her fault she chased you
it was all her fault that you bedded her
and with me your love was pure

I left you to your lying game
you said that I was to blame
that our path parted what a shame
that I was playing a mind game

I bid your game a happy farewell
I have places to go people to know
there's seven seas to sail
and lots of land to explore.
