Love Turns To Lies Chris Rea

I could have stood to watch you walk away
And put it down to your uncertain ways
Or maybe baby you've had a change of heart
Maybe wanna make a brand new start
Crazy though what I say may seem
I could have learned to mend these broken dreams
You could have pushed I would have gently fell
I could have played the graceful one so well

What's that you say
You were gonna leave me anyway
Any fool can see, see what you've done to me
When your love turns to lies

The actor played the part of sweet desire
And tiptoed out upon the highest wire
The truth to tell upon a rope too thin
And so the fall of treachery begins
But oh to see the starlet's smiling face
So eagerly awaits to take the place
I tried to fall in a clean and graceful way
You should have said I would have given way

And what's that you say
You were gonna leave me anyway
Any fool can see, see what you've done to me
When your love turns to lies
