Tall Tales and Fancy Dresses
See the light through the trees
Feel the soft summer breeze
Cool feet in an icy cold river
That sure was heaven to me
I saw the rainbow over the bay
I always swore I'd remember this day
Well both good and bad
Memories fade
That sure was heaven to me
Tall tales and fancy dresses
You may well have to pay
For any unlikely caresses
One day you'll be flying
The next you'll be on your knees
Begging to be free
I know your secrets
And I know your lies
I know your prejudices
I know who you like to despise
I know your brand of evil
I can see it in your eyes
And you mean less than nothing to me
I'll give you this man
You got some cheek
The whole world knows you're lying
Yeah you're lying through your teeth
You ain't pulling any wool
Over anybody's eyes
And you mean less than nothing to me
Tall tales and fancy dresses
You may well have to pay
For any unlikely caresses
One day you'll be flying
The next you'll be on your knees
Begging to be free
See the light through the trees
Feel the soft summer breeze
Cool feet in an icy cold river
That sure was heaven to me
That sure was heaven to me
Feel the soft summer breeze
Cool feet in an icy cold river
That sure was heaven to me
I saw the rainbow over the bay
I always swore I'd remember this day
Well both good and bad
Memories fade
That sure was heaven to me
Tall tales and fancy dresses
You may well have to pay
For any unlikely caresses
One day you'll be flying
The next you'll be on your knees
Begging to be free
I know your secrets
And I know your lies
I know your prejudices
I know who you like to despise
I know your brand of evil
I can see it in your eyes
And you mean less than nothing to me
I'll give you this man
You got some cheek
The whole world knows you're lying
Yeah you're lying through your teeth
You ain't pulling any wool
Over anybody's eyes
And you mean less than nothing to me
Tall tales and fancy dresses
You may well have to pay
For any unlikely caresses
One day you'll be flying
The next you'll be on your knees
Begging to be free
See the light through the trees
Feel the soft summer breeze
Cool feet in an icy cold river
That sure was heaven to me
That sure was heaven to me
