White Lies

White Lies - Is Love lyrics

rate me

She stares into the mirror, youth fading with the sun

The hollows in her face like wishing wells

Scarlet as a paper-cut, and jewelled as the Orion,

She'd never worn that jewellery as a girl.

She says 'the only thing I've ever found

That's greater than it always sounds

Is Love.'

He stares into the river, heart falling to the dri"

An argument of cars moving full steam behind

Blood-shoot as a baby, and sulking like a valley

Fishing in reflections, killing time

He says 'the only thing I've ever found

That's greater than it always sounds

Is Love.'

It's the bath that's getting cold

While you're frozen to your bed

The milk that's going rancid on the table

The panic in the evening

The photos in the dustbin

The pointless items we forgot to label.

It's the perfume on her wrists

That stinks of easy Birthdays

The spare keys like asbestos on the side

It's the cross around his neck,

For luck and not for honour,

Like a diamond on the knuckle

On a newly married bride.

She says 'the only thing I've ever found

That's greater than it always sounds

Is Love.'

He says 'the only thing I've ever found

That's greater than it always sounds

Is Love.'

And I know the only thing I've ever found

That's greater than it always sounds

Is Love.
