Today I cried for you
I just wanted you to tell me a beautiful lie
but not even that was possible

The tears flowed as the emotions became overwhelming
I just wanted to hear a beautiful lie from you
Why was it not possible

The sun went down and darkness surrounded and still I cried
I just wanted you to tell me a beautiful lie
Why couldn't you, would it have hurt anything

The darkness held me in it's cold embrace when I wanted to be in your warm embrace
I just wanted to hear a beautiful lie from you
Why won't you just say it

I cried in the darkness, tears wet on my cheek, all for you
No beautiful lie came from you
Why can't you just tell me you love me it's all I wanted, a beautiful lie
