Unlovingly
You speak loving words, but most without grace
Time passes slowly in your shadowed eyes
With that doubtful smile I cannot erase
Darling: love does not speak truth, only lies.
Many nights spent awake for you alone
And with no one have I to sympathize
Your beauty I have to keep for my own
Darling: love does not speak truth, only lies.
But tell me did you find it amusing?
Trying out your blind disguise while I cried
My heart you used for your own abusing
Darling: love does not speak truth, only lies
It seems we both have been deceived this time,
Sweetheart: love stole our truth from all your lies.
