You tell me lies, lies, lies
Sweet little lies

When I cannot bear the truth

You tell me lies, lies, lies

Sweet little lies
Help me make them all come true


Tell me that the rain won't fall today
Tell me that the taxman lost his way
Tell me that the hurtin ain't gonna hurt no more

Tell me that somebody stopped the war



I say yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I say yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah


Tell me that the whole world's wonderful
Tell me that the bank account's still full
Tell me that we all got plenty of time

Tell me that I ain't gonna lose my mind (lift me up now)



I say yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I say yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah


And you know I'm just a man
With my heart in my hand
You tell me things and hope

And ghosts won't leave me alone
And even though I got no plans
I'm on the run from the man

And just hold on to me
You just hold on to me


Every time I need a prayer
Every time I need to share
Every time I needed someone to hold on to me



Help me make them all come true

Help me make them all come true
Help me make them all come true
Help me make them all come true

Help me make them all come true

tell me that the whole world's wonderful
