I thought love so gentle, so pure

I knew love so sweet and so secure

turning with an open heart

with a touch we would never be apart



So much love just gone slipped away

so much pain to see that love betrays

I will never love again

for love lies and it will die in the end



If I knew then what I know now

if I had known it all somehow

always believing love is deceiving

I could have held my shattered dreams

seen all the things I should have seen

now I know love lies

now I know love is bound to die



Flames of love now ash just drifts away

here I am I'm lost and love's astray

I can never love again

for live lied and then it died in the end



[Chorus:]

I thought I saw love in his eyes

but now I know that love just lies

leaving me hollow nothing follow

so I will never give my heart

and I will be a woman apart

now I know love lies

now I know love is bound to die



And love was nothing but a need

devoured by an empty greed

the ashes fill my empty heart

I will always stand apart

this from love's beguiling mask

a kiss, the questions never asked

and now I know that love just lies

I know love is bound to die



[Chorus]
