What's that lyin' on her pillow Folded up so neat What once was love is now a letter Lying where she used to sleep Oh, I thought love was something I could count on But it took her to show me that [Chorus:] Love lies-right to your face Love lies-just when I had faith It would let me down I know that love lies-right to the end Love lies-I know the word will never mean the same to me What's this emptiness inside me Where her promise used to be She said she'd be here to guide me I guess now the joke's on me Oh, I thought love was something like devotion But it took her to show me that [Chorus] Just when you think you know what love is about Someone takes your place, and you find that [Chorus]
