My heart lied

Carl Cleves

Leaning on a lamppost
Waiting for a cab
Take me to the airport please
Tonight has been a bad night
I’m feeling like a crushed crab
At the bottom of the Baltic sea

I was a fool to believe
That I could have just one more bite
I thought I had it right
When I followed my heart my heart lied

A Bentley in the driveway
A briefcase on the floor
Whose silk shirt is that hanging from the bedroom door?
Cigarettes in the ashtray
A silver spoon and more
Perfume in the bathroom I’ve never smelled before

I wore my heart on a sleeve
‘till I fell from a great height
Put a dent in my pride
When I trusted my heart my heart lied (solo)

He treats me like a princess
Naked in the spa
About the sex I hold no gripe
Incense by the bedside
I’m the romantic type
Were all those chats on skype only so much hype?

I tied my heart on a string
And flew it like a paper kite
But the sun was a little too bright
When I followed my heart my heart lied (solo)

I’ll take a train to Paris
Or join a cruise to Greece
Jump on a plane to Prague or Rome
My coat is all I carry, sir
A one-way ticket please
I’m too old mum to come back home

I was a fool to believe
That I could have just one more bite
I thought I had it right

When I followed my heart my heart lied
