Truth Never Lies

IN A LITTLE WHILE
I WOULD UNCOVER THE LIE
THAT SURROUNDS THE TRUTH
AS I KNOW IT TO BE WITH YOU
YOUR LIPS WILL QUIVER,AS YOU STUTTER
DESPERATION IN EVERY WORD YOU UTTER
WANTING ME TO BELIEVE AGAIN
THE LIES THAT BRING TO YOU SUCH GAIN
THOSE PROMISES THAT HAVE COME TO NAUGHT
OF VOWS DEAR, TO HOLD;YOU DO NOT
I AM NODDING,YET PRODDING
HOPING YOU WILL STOP MOCKING
FOR I HAVE SEEN AGAIN AND AGAIN
THE WAY YOU LOOK AT JANE
I HAVE SEEN AND LOOKED AWAY
ALAS!SHE HAS COME TO STAY
SHE SAYS WE NEED TO TALK
SO TO THE SUN ROOM WE WALK
YEA,IN A LITTLE WHILE I WOULD KNOW FOR SURE
FOR BENEATH HER BLOUSE THE TRUTH SHOWS
