A Matter of Trust

Some love is just a lie of the heartThe cold remains of what began with a passionate startAnd they may not want it to endBut it will, it’s just a question of whenI’ve lived long enough to have learnedThe closer you get to the fire the more you get burnedBut that won’t happen to usBecause it’s always been a matter of trust

I know you’re an emotional girlIt took a lot for you to not lose your faith in this worldI can’t offer you proofBut you’re gonna face a moment of truthIt’s hard when you’re always afraidYou just recover when another belief is betrayedSo break my heart if you mustIt’s a matter of trust

You can’t go the distanceWith too much resistanceI know you have doubtsBut for God’s sake don’t shut me out

This time you’ve got nothing to loseYou can take it, you can leave itWhatever you chooseI won’t hold back anythingAnd I’ll walk away a fool or a kingSome love is just a lie of the mindIt’s make believe until it’s only a matter of timeAnd some might have learned to adjustBut then it never was a matter of trust

I’m sure you’re aware loveWe’ve both had our share ofBelieving too longWhen the whole situation was wrong

Some love is just a lie of the soulA constant battle for the ultimate state of controlAfter you’ve heard lie upon lieThere can hardly be a question of whySome love is just a lie of the heartThe cold remains of what began with a passionate startBut that can’t happen to usBecause it’s always been a matter of trust
