Eddi Reader - Wonderful Lie Lyrics
I remember all of this in slow motionEvery tawdry detailDust caught in the sun in your kitchenEmpty words, saying nothingI nearly forgot who i wasI nearly forgot who i wasI nearly forgot who i wasI nearly forgot who i wasA church behind a road, a couple kissingBoth of us know what that meansI'd rather have that kiss than what is missingSay anything you like and i'll believe youI nearly forgot who i wasI nearly forgot who i wasI nearly forgot who i wasI nearly forgot who i wasWhat a wonderful lieWhat a wonderful lieWhat a wonderful lieWhat a wonderful lieWhat's the truth ever done for me?I don't knowSo tell me againTell me againTell me againThis wonderful lieAll i want is something i can't haveAnd if you can't tell the truthThen make it a wonderful lieI see you dance with all your heroesEach different doll in judy garland shoesAnd if they can danceThen why, oh why, can't i?I nearly forgot who i wasI nearly forgot who i wasI nearly forgot who i wasI nearly forgot who i wasWhat a wonderful lieWhat a wonderful lieWhat a wonderful lieWhat a wonderful lieWhat's the truth ever done for me?I don't knowSo tell me againTell me againTell me againTell me againThis wonderful lieThis wonderful lieThis wonderful lie
