"Love Lies, Love Dies" lyrics - ANNIE HASLAM

ANNIE HASLAM
"Love Lies, Love Dies"

I thought love so gentle, so pure
I knew love so sweet and so secure
turning with an open heart
with a touch we would never be apart

So much love just gone slipped away
so much pain to see that love betrays
I will never love again
for love lies and it will die in the end

If I knew then what I know now
if I had known it all somehow
always believing love is deceiving
I could have held my shattered dreams
seen all the things I should have seen
now I know love lies
now I know love is bound to die

Flames of love now ash just drifts away
here I am I'm lost and love's astray
I can never love again
for live lied and then it died in the end

[Chorus:]
I thought I saw love in his eyes
but now I know that love just lies
leaving me hollow nothing follow
so I will never give my heart
and I will be a woman apart
now I know love lies
now I know love is bound to die

And love was nothing but a need
devoured by an empty greed
the ashes fill my empty heart
I will always stand apart
this from love's beguiling mask
a kiss, the questions never asked
and now I know that love just lies
I know love is bound to die

[Chorus]
