Elvis Costello - How Much I Lied lyrics

Darling, there is one thing I must tell you, you must know

It's so hard to say the words I feel

This fancy that I'm on's been going on too long

It's time to stop pretending things are real

'Cause I've been living deep in sin, I've been living blind

And I just don't know what's right or wrong

To take a chance on losing you is such a silly thing to do

A chance I might wake up and find you gone

Blue, so blue, my love is burning blue

Any private flame could be a lie

Blue, so blue, my love still burns for you

But I know I'll only make you cry

A thief can only steal from you

He cannot break your heart

He can never touch the precious things inside

Someone like you should surely be

Miles and miles away from me

Then you'd never care how much I lied

So try to understand the pain

It takes so long when I explain

Please don't you forget how much I lied

How much I lied
