NORAH JONES lyrics : "Deceptively Yours"

I couldn't make a change
I might have known you had found
Another love

I sat at home all night
Bask in the lonely pale
Of my bedstand light


But through a tear in a curtain
In a cheap motel

I saw with jealous eyes
You made the call to lie
Deceptively yours


I saw a black cloud
I didn't hear a sound

Only the shell on the ground
There was a scream somewhere
And in the thick night air

I put the pedal down
As the sirens wailed
And I sat alone and prayed

Not knowing what was to come

But through a tear in a curtain

In a cheap motel
I saw with jealous eyes
You made the call to lie

Deceptively yours

I tried not to believe

Teh scene that I could see
It felt like days passez by
Before I truend away

I felt a dizzy sway
And the gun in my hand
Stood before a judge


He cleared his throat to say
"I won't give you no bail"

Schackled with chains or love
I knew that I had bought
My own coffin nails


I hear your sweet voice calling out my name
As I stare from a six foot cell

And from beyond I heard the words
Deceptively yours
