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      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      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      Just when you think you know what love is about   Someone takes your place, and you find that      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
