Love Turns To Lies Lyrics - Chris Rea

I could have stood to watch you walk away 

And put it down to your uncertain ways 

Or maybe baby you've had a change of heart 

Maybe want to make a brand new start 

Crazy though what I say may seem 

I could have learned to mend these broken dreams 

You could have pushed I would have gently fell 

I could have played the graceful one so well 

What's that you say 

You were gonna leave me anyway 

Any fool can see, see what you've done to me 

When your love turns to lies 

The actor played the part of sweet desire 

And tiptoed out upon the highest wire 

The truth to tell upon a rope too thin 

And so the fall of treachery begins 

But oh to see the starlet's smiling face 

So eagerly awaits to take the place 

I tried to fall in a clean and graceful way 

You could have said I would have given way 

And I see him smile the way that I smiled 

And I hear him laugh the way that I did 

But I hear him screaming and I hear him cry 

And I see him falling 

When your love turns to lies 

What's that you say 

You were gonna leave me anyway 

Any fool can see, see what you've done to me 

When your love turns to lies
