Convincing Lies - Randy VanWarmer

You look for truth with hopeful eyes

You’re asking me to tell you lies

You need to hear me say the words

I love you

And God, you know I wish I did

How can I ask what I can’t give?

And without love, how can I live?

I need you

So I’ll look straight into your eyes

And tell you sweet convincing lies

For sympathy a child cries

And breaks a woman’s heart

Are breezes lost that blow one way?

Are seeds that fall on stony ground to waste?

Do falling stars all fall in haste

For nothing?

Oh no, you can’t lose the love you sow

It may take root or never grow

But in your heart you’ll always know

It’s planted

So I’ll look straight into your eyes

And tell you sweet convincing lies

For sympathy a child cries

And breaks a woman’s heart

No, you can’t lose the love you sow

It may take root or never grow

But in your heart you’ll always know

It’s planted

So I’ll look straight into your eyes

And tell you sweet convincing lies

For sympathy a child cries

And breaks a woman’s heart

Convincing lies

Convincing lies

Convincing lies

Convincing lies
