One False Move
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Eyes closed against the daylight
Why can't I stay asleep
It all comes back
I never thought love would cut me so deep
As you wake beside me now
And we're both feeling empty inside
Time to say it's over
Do we quit now
Or can we make it work out this time?
One false move could leave me with a stranger
Watching the hours drift by in his eyes
One false move, I recognise the danger
But I never see through your diguise
You're such a nervous type
I can see it every day
It makes me uneasy, I try to resist
But I know there is no way
One false move could leave me with a stranger
Watching the hours drift by in his eyes
One false move, I recognise the danger
But I never see through your lies
One false move could leave me with a stranger
Watching the hours drift by in his eyes
One false move, I recognise the danger
But I never see through your lies
You leave me with a stranger
Watching the hours drift by in your eyes
One false move, I recognise the danger
But I never see through your lies
Your lies
