Love never asks you to lie

Love never asks you to lie
November twelfth and it is a nice night to pretend
That nothing will come at me like you did again
I could see it in your eyes and felt it in your touch
That you were as close to the truth as anything ever was

Heard you cry
Love never asks you to lie
Take off your evil disguise
I could see clear through your eyes
Western Union, Cadillacs, bankers and ice cream
Breaking windows, singing spirituals, ring like memories
At the graduation ceremony, setting our sights free
There is never gonna be another you and me
Heard you cry
Love never asks you to lie
Take off your evil disguise
I could see clear through your eyes
And they say it's gonna shoot you
Shoot you down
When you walk around the corner
Of this ghost town
You know, they say it's gonna shoot you
Shoot you down
Heard you cry
Love never asks you to lie
Take off your evil disguise
I could see clear through your eyes
Heard you cry
Love never asks you to lie
Take off your evil disguise
I could see clear through your eyes
