The Lonely Lie

I talked to Michael
Just the other week
For hours he told me
How he loved that new city
And His job he loved so much
So completely
The lonely lie so easily

I met with Becca
Down at the bakery
All she wants is kids
Sip coffee and have a sweet
We talked about the past
She Smiled protectively
The lonely lie so easily

I mentioned Sally
In a conversation with Jane
That Martin had passed by here
And didn't even get off the train
And Sally said quite loud
'It's Time to Celebrate'
The lonely lie so easily

I asked the Bartender
For some paper and ink
So I could write down these lyrics
How about another drink?
He looked me in the eyes
Can you get home tonight
The lonely lie so easily
