I told you this would last forever But I lied I said things will never change But I lied I told you you were beatiful, even though I can't explain beauty So I lied I told you Red was a beatiful color but who and what describes beauty? For they say the beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder I say it's mostly directly proportional to how you feel about a person Excuse my mathematical jargon because I'm no Mathematician Don't they say in the Bible that King Solom wore Purple, the color of beauty, the color of wisdom But who am I to tell it different so, I lied I said your skin was as smooth as silk and as beautiful as vanilla but, was it?  Was it really? I know I couldn't tell the truth so, I lied I told you your eyes are beatiful, your eyes are big, twinkly Maybe I lied, it was just your pupil dialating when it saw my light I told you I could give you the world, But the world was not mine to give to begin with, but baby its what you wanted so, I lied I also told you the sky was green, the sea was blue, and you believed every word, I'm sorry Maybe I lie a bit too much, or maybe just enough, or maybe that's also a lie It's mostly to protect you Remeber that day at the park? I held you in my arms The world didn't seeze to exist but us We swore to be together for life, was it a lie You said you're mine forever and I'm yours too, or was it also a lie? Can't keep with the lies no more It's lie after lie because that's all what you seem to believe Because truth to you, seems too good to be true I remember the day you held my hand, looked me in the eye and said, "do you still love me? " I know I used to answer that everyday with no doubt in my mind, but that day, The answer remained the same, As I said proudly, "I still do babe" Guess what?...
