Heart Lies from Drifting by Dan Fisk

If I could find a metaphore, to help me say and underscore, why things between us just can’t move ahead.
We are glasses once rose colored, now clear as day uncovered, thru which we see the scars of a heart misled.

I thought you were the one, but I couldn’t make it true.
My heart lies with her, and my heart’s lied to you.

No No baby, you aren’t the little lady I thought. Can’t do this… Can’t do this anymore.
No No baby, it’s no longer a maybe come on, been through this, been through this before.

I’m like a toy you played with as a child, a diversion meant to make you smile, a shoulder there to cry on when your blue.
I know I promised you the world, and you would be the only girl, but the world has turned me on to something new.

I thought you were the one, but I couldn’t make it true.
My heart lies with her, and my heart’s lied to you.

No No baby, you aren’t the little lady I thought. Can’t do this… Can’t do this anymore.
No No baby, it’s no longer a maybe come on, been through this, been through this before.

You were the water that I hoped for, in a desert I tried to ignore, but a mirage is all that you turned out to be.
I took a long hard look, used every trick in the book, and after all this time it’s plain to see.

I thought you were the one, but I couldn’t make it true.
My heart lies with her, and my heart’s lied to you.

No No baby, you aren’t the little lady I thought. Can’t do this… Can’t do this anymore.
No No baby, it’s no longer a maybe come on, been through this, been through this before.
No No baby, you aren’t the little lady I thought. Can’t do this… Can’t do this anymore.
No No baby, it’s no longer a maybe come on, can't do this, been through this before.
