Useful Lies
Well, I guess there were some clues
There was a part of you I never knew
When you'd say "Goodnight", I'd wonder where you went
You were sad, you were so different then
But we were young and so in love
And every photo we looked beautiful
When we'd walk, the eyes would follow down the street
I'd hold your hand to feel their jealousy
Built my life around your useful lies
Dancing in the corner while the storm went by
All my days behind your careful lines
While the only thing that happened was time
You would call me from the road
And only tell me about the shows
When you'd come home, there would be less of you each time
The rest you kept somewhere I knew would not be mine
Built my life around your useful lies
Dancing in the corner while the storm went by
All my days behind your careful lines
While the only thing that happened was time
Now, I wonder when you knew
And why I didn't ever notice too
I knew the lines, but I never saw the play
I heard the warnings, but I stood right in the way
Built my life around your useful lies
Dancing in the corner while the storm went by
All my days behind your careful lines
While the only thing that happened was time
There was a part of you I never knew
When you'd say "Goodnight", I'd wonder where you went
You were sad, you were so different then
But we were young and so in love
And every photo we looked beautiful
When we'd walk, the eyes would follow down the street
I'd hold your hand to feel their jealousy
Built my life around your useful lies
Dancing in the corner while the storm went by
All my days behind your careful lines
While the only thing that happened was time
You would call me from the road
And only tell me about the shows
When you'd come home, there would be less of you each time
The rest you kept somewhere I knew would not be mine
Built my life around your useful lies
Dancing in the corner while the storm went by
All my days behind your careful lines
While the only thing that happened was time
Now, I wonder when you knew
And why I didn't ever notice too
I knew the lines, but I never saw the play
I heard the warnings, but I stood right in the way
Built my life around your useful lies
Dancing in the corner while the storm went by
All my days behind your careful lines
While the only thing that happened was time
