Lyrics
I KNOW IT AIN'T TRUE
Copyright by Bob Boyle and Debbie Darnell
Verse:
Smoke was rising and I felt it burn my eyes
I wanted to run but I fell in your lies
Fire of love lies wasted, bitterly in starkness of daylight
I feel the walls are closing in
There's no air left to breathe
and I wish I had the strength it took to leave
Chorus:
'Cuz you got that look but I see right through you now
I guess I been took, it's like I never knew you now
When you turned around this morning
winter's ice was in your eyes
You said you'd always love me but I know it ain't true
I know it ain't true
Verse:
Words still haunt me like demons at my door
Still every promise gave such hope for more
Love arrived, once harmless, angrily reveals it's darest soul
I feel the walls are closing in
There's no air left to breathe
and I wish I had the strength it took to leave
Chorus:
'Cuz you got that look but I see right through you now
I guess I been took, it's like I never knew you now
When you turned around this morning
winter's ice was in your eyes
You said you'd always love me but I know it ain't true
I know it ain't true
Bridge:
Do my eyes deceive me? Do they tell the truth?
And if my heart should lead me would I be just your fool?
No, I can't believe it's alright,
there's no make believin' tonight
'Cuz you got that look
Chorus:
When you turned around this morning
winter's ice was in your eyes
You said you'd always love me but I know it ain't true now
I know it ain't true now anymore
