A man can tell a thousand lies I've learned my lesson well Hope I live to tell The secret I have learned, 'till then It will burn inside of me The truth is never far behind You kept it hidden well If I live to tell The secret I knew then

I took one look at you That's all I meant to do My feet could step and walk My lips could move and talk And yet my heart stood still Though not a single word was spoken I could tell you knew Told me so well you knew I never lived at all

Watched it pour as I touched your face Well, it burned while I cried 'Cause I heard it screaming out your name I set fire to the rain Let it burn That I never knew, never knew All the things you'd say They were never true, never true

Forever love No matter what I'll be waiting for you I promise you Someday we'll be together I won't give up The first time I laid my eyes on you I knew We'd spend this life side by side I still feel the same though you're so far away

You were the wind that let me go Who we are I'll never know But when we spoke I knew you well You knew me well You loved me through and through I never thought I would watch you leave us From a room as a kid I held so close I was a son made upon sand

Barefoot on the grass, listening to our favorite song Baby, I'm dancing in the dark, with you between my arms I found a love for me Darling just dive right in And follow my lead Well I found a girl beautiful and sweet I never knew you were the someone

You remind me of a few of my famous friends Well, that all depends what you qualify as friends You remind me of a former love that I once knew And you carry a little speech with you We were holding hands walking through the middle of the street It's fine
