Stanley Michael Volume 2: 1977 to 1980 Beautiful Lies from "Greatest Hints", 1979, Arista Records, Inc. Baby's on the backstreets with an hourglass in her hand And they trade their allegiance for a place to make a stand... And she might lose perspective But she'll never lose control She's just not like that no, not at all... She's studied with the wise men and she's run with all the fools She brings 'em on so slowly till she's sure they know the rules... And then she leaves 'em bleeding with their hearts nailed to her door and they just lie there crying... (CHORUS:) Beautiful lies, you could live in All the memories that sail on through the night... And oh, they need her So they'll just close their eyes while she makes them believe all her Beautiful Lies... (BRIDGE:) Maybe, someday, somehow, someway Someone will show her what the pain is like... And oh, they need her But they'll just close their eyes While she makes them believe all her Beautiful Lies... Backlit in the doorway Standing naked in the light She calls my name out softly-- says, "Michael, everything's all right..." She tells me that she loves me 'cause that's what I want to hear Then she's gone before the morning She just disappears... And all I'm left with are... (CHORUS:) Beautiful lies, you could live in All the memories that sail on through the night... And oh, I need her But I'll just close my eyes while she makes me believe all her Beautiful Lies... Beautiful Lies... Beautiful Lies... --words & music by Michael Stanley & Bob Pelander |
