Lyrics

Love Eludes a Liar
Phil Maffetone

Traveling down the river wide
Will you please answer why?
It’s just the only thing, I cried
That’s easy without tryin’

What else is missing from your days?
…Without the caveat
I didn’t love in other ways
‘cause it didn’t come like that

You’re from high majestic mountains
So, I still ask you why?
Nothing seemed to work when
Everything was tried

It’s trouble that arises when the rapids turn to fire
And not so easy to pretend when |: love eludes a liar :|

Did you get cold with those high clouds?
‘m asking again right now
Alright, I sighed my thoughts so loud
It’s love, no-one knows how

Fail you must and pain endure
Don’t hide or conceal
I said, love seemed like some evil cure
And teasingly unreal

So, you sail down this easy way
To the sea and journey’s end
Ah, you know just what to say
Yea it’s there we die as friends
There we die as friends

It’s trouble that arises when the rapids turn to fire
And not so easy to pretend when |: love eludes a liar :|
