Pretty Lies
Father's tell such pretty lies to little girls
Life is good and life is fair for little girls
When you smile and close your eyes
The pretty lies seem true
I saw my life, perfectly, it would be
Smoother than glass, everything in its place
Order and calm
Wedding ring, easy grace
All of my dreams in my reach coming true
Albert and me
Doing the things lover's do
I saw my life prosperous, safe and sound
Father and me passing time, skies a blue
Mother would be happy, I'm happy too
Life would sail on
Pretty lies full of bliss
I saw my life changing
But never changing like this
Such pretty lies masquerading as duty and honour
Everything dies, even little girl storybook
Plans and dreams and Give me the world
Finally, as it is
Not black and white
Compromise, as it is
Not wrong or right
Pretty lies, as it is
Albert and me
Little girl, foolish boy
Willing to live like a man who is willing to die
To justify
His pretty lie
Life is good and life is fair for little girls
When you smile and close your eyes
The pretty lies seem true
I saw my life, perfectly, it would be
Smoother than glass, everything in its place
Order and calm
Wedding ring, easy grace
All of my dreams in my reach coming true
Albert and me
Doing the things lover's do
I saw my life prosperous, safe and sound
Father and me passing time, skies a blue
Mother would be happy, I'm happy too
Life would sail on
Pretty lies full of bliss
I saw my life changing
But never changing like this
Such pretty lies masquerading as duty and honour
Everything dies, even little girl storybook
Plans and dreams and Give me the world
Finally, as it is
Not black and white
Compromise, as it is
Not wrong or right
Pretty lies, as it is
Albert and me
Little girl, foolish boy
Willing to live like a man who is willing to die
To justify
His pretty lie
