Yet Neither of Us Lied…

 

You were magical

Heaven-sent to me

You came when I wasn't looking

You taught me how to see.

 

And I carried my love inside myself

Afraid to let it shine.

Never thought that that might bring you pain

Or ever make you cry

 

We were Classical,

A picture-perfect pair.

But like in every picture

The whole story isn't there.

 

And we carried our pain inside ourselves

Quick, hide it out of sight

Until the day the wall fell down...

And we began the fight.

 

And I cried

And you cried

Carried on the fight

And Trust was shattered, broken

Yet neither of us lied...

 

Now it's over.

The picture's torn apart.

And all that I believed in

Has broken with my heart.

 

How I cried: "No love, don't leave me!"

And you said: "I can't stay."

 

It was tragic.

Lost in the debris

Broken like a ship would be

That's scuttled in the sea.

 

And every little fragile thing

Drags me down to tears

And I live life for the moment now

Give no thought to the years.

 

And I cried

And you cried

Carried on the fight

And Trust was shattered, broken

Yet neither of us lied...
