LET'S MAKE A LIE (A SONG)

a song

Turn your back, I'll walk away
No goodbyes, forever it will be
I'll stay behind, ooh, baby
I was captivated by your lies.

Move on straight ahead
There's a music lounge somewhere
Where you can sing your songs
Colored folks are waiting there.

Refrain:
Can't you see I love you?
But I won't tell you that...

Chorus:
Ohh, baby, I love you
But I have to keep it in my heart
I don't want us to hurt each other
Come on baby, let's just make a lie
A lie, ohh, a lie
Let's make a lie
That love's not between us
Let's make a lie.

Don't look back, silly boy
I don't want to see your face
That sadness which you can see, too
I am a mirror of your soul.


Move on straight ahead
There's a music lounge somewhere
Where you can sing your songs
Colored folks are waiting there.

Refrain:
Can't you see I love you?
But I won't tell you that...

Chorus:
Ohh, baby, I love you
But I have to keep it in my heart
I don't want us to hurt each other
Come on baby, let's just make a lie
A lie, ohh, a lie
Let's make a lie
That love's not between us
Let's make a lie.

Coda:
It's better to make...
A lie, ohh, a lie
Let's make a lie
That love's not between us
Let's make a lie.

In love lies can be so close to the truth..only a denial..not a harmful lie but a steel door for the heart to hide behind.
Very much enjoyed this...will make a fine song.

I love this song...and am reminded of a lyric of Sheryl Crow..."lie to me, i'll believe you"

looking forward to reading more of you.
