I have a tale to tell
Sometimes it gets so hard to hide it well
I was not ready for the fall
Too blind to see the writing on the wall
Chorus:
A man can tell a thousand lies
I've learned my lesson well
Hope i live to tell
The secret i have learned, 'till then
It will burn inside of me
I know where beauty lives
I've seen it once, i know the warm she gives
The light that you could never see
It shines inside, you can't take that from me
chorus)
2nd chorus:
The truth is never far behind
You kept it hidden well
If i live to tell
The secret i knew then
Will i ever have the chance again
If i ran away, i'd never have the strength
To go very far
How would they hear the beating of my heart
Will it grow cold
The secret that i hide, will i grow old
How will they hear
When will they learn
How will they know
(chorus)
