Beautiful Liars

from Safe Places To Dream by Alice Bierhorst

/

about

A mournful and forgiving hymn to the required deceptions of love.

lyrics

Beautiful Liars
©1997 Alice Bierhorst/BMI

I believe in make-believe
Take a look at me, what do you want to see

CHORUS
I just want to take your arm
I'm so easily led
By your beautiful lies
I won't do you harm, or scandalize our bed
With my beautiful lies
I think we're what we deserve
BEAUTIFUL LIARS

Let's play let's pretend
I will be the angel that heaven sent you

CHORUS

You're no saint, but you're my friend
You build me up and you tear me back down again

CHORUS

I believe in make-believe
It's for the things called love that I deceive you

CHORUS

I won't do you harm, I'm so easily led
By your beautiful lies
I think we're what we deserve
BEAUTIFUL LIARS
