Dan Fogelberg - False Faces lyrics

Oil on canvas

Couplets and stanzas to divine who you are

Pencil portrayals and jealous betrayals

Get you further afar

Oh, false faces and meaningless chases I travel alone

Oh, first places and calendar races I need a home

Hostile hotel walls, footfalls and phone calls

And you're on the line

Gentle coercions and bitter desertions

When the truth is a lie

Oh, false faces and meaningless chases I travel alone

Oh, first places and calendar races I need a home

Lover twice yearly

That last battle nearly cost me the fight

Broke through the ice and got cut down to size

And escaped through the night

Oh, false faces and meaningless chases I travel alone

Oh, first places and calendar races I need a home
