Lie, Cheat, and Steal

I wanna take us both to Amsterdam
Photograph statues in the park, wander the Red Light after dark
Laugh like little kids who should've known better
Inside voices, timezone lessons
Half a world away from where our problems are

You said "I won't ask you to do anything that you don't wanna do,"
So I'd appreciate you thinking this thing through

(And) if you're gonna lie, baby lie right in my arms
If you're gonna cheat, let's cheat death here in the dark
If you're gonna steal, baby steal my breath away
You can lie, cheat and steal if you stay

I hold your silhouette
In the darkest corridors of my recalling
Said you don't leave the ground no more, you're scared of falling
But I remember you wrapped in my sweater
Messing up the words to "London Calling,"
Walkin' back to your place in the morning

You said "I won't ask you to do anything that you don't wanna do"
So I'd appreciate you thinking this thing through

(And) if you're gonna lie, baby lie right in my arms
If you're gonna cheat, let's cheat death here in the dark
If you're gonna steal, baby steal my breath away
You can lie, cheat and steal if you stay

We're running out of runway
And everybody knows it
I can hear what you say
(But) I'm asking you to show me

(And) if you're gonna lie, baby lie right in my arms
If you're gonna cheat, let's cheat death here in the dark
If you're gonna steal, baby steal my breath away
You can lie, cheat and steal if you stay
You can lie, cheat and steal if you stay
