NORAH JONES - Deceptively Yours lyrics

rate me

I couldn't make a change

I might have known you had found

Another love

I sat at home all night

Bask in the lonely pale

Of my bedstand light

But through a tear in a curtain

In a cheap motel

I saw with jealous eyes

You made the call to lie

Deceptively yours

I saw a black cloud

I didn't hear a sound

Only the shell on the ground

There was a scream somewhere

And in the thick night air

I put the pedal down

As the sirens wailed

And I sat alone and prayed

Not knowing what was to come

But through a tear in a curtain

In a cheap motel

I saw with jealous eyes

You made the call to lie

Deceptively yours

I tried not to believe

Teh scene that I could see

It felt like days passez by

Before I truend away

I felt a dizzy sway

And the gun in my hand

Stood before a judge

He cleared his throat to say

"I won't give you no bail"

Schackled with chains or love

I knew that I had bought

My own coffin nails

I hear your sweet voice calling out my name

As I stare from a six foot cell

And from beyond I heard the words

Deceptively yours
