The lips of time, they kiss again   When I walk alone into the night   They know my voice, they know my name   My need for love, my fear of heights      So I keep my wit, my running game   My shoulders straight, chin up high   But it's all a lie   It's all a lie, it's all a lie      And I forget how the time, it flies   When my fingers crossed, I hope in vain   That you'll be home with sleepy eyes   To fix it all, ?cause you know my pain      And I forget how the time, it flies   When the day is long, and it keeps me dry   ?Cause it's all a lie   It's all a lie, it's all a lie      There's no perfect way to clear the mess   We both have a past in a silver frame   See my heart, it died a slow weary death   In the tainted arms of another man      You and I we're no different   Than the rest of the world when the morning rings   Everyone wants a piece of the love of God   Everyone sings, everyone sings      I know you can tell that I can't help myself   Can't help myself   ?Cause it's all a lie   It's all a lie, it's all a lie, it's all a lie, it's all a lie, it's all a lie      The lips of time, they kiss again   When I walk alone into the night   They know my voice, they know my name   My need for love, my fear of heights      But seen I'm not different than the rest of the world   When the morning rings   I just want a piece of the love of God
