To Tell a Lie - Leila

Will she be the same

If I come around again

Maybe things will change

I’ll never see this face again

Oh I didn’t mean to tell the wicked lie

Oh I didn’t mean to say goodbye

I … I should turn and go back

Explain to her what she means to me and try to face the facts

We had made a pact

We’d talk through any problems and that would just be that

Oh I didn’t mean to tell the wicked lie

Oh I should never have said goodbye

Well we met a long time ago

When she was young and I felt old

I will never forget

How we made love on the first night

Because it felt right

Oh it felt right

We spent years in each other’s arms

Safe from any harm

Thinking this would never end

And we shared all the secrets

We had ever kept

She was my lover and my friend
