Don't need anyone giving directions
Don't need any old props to dress up my life
Every life's on show every minute
So, we throw in some lies
It's alright.
They're only white lies
They're alright.

I don't ask for too much Keep it simple
Yes, I try to be true when I am in love
Love is always so complicated
So, we throw in some lies
Just enough.

Am I alone, pretending
Enerything is wonderful and perfect in the state of love
Nothing can and nothing will go wrong
Can you believe in it?
Even if
The lies can make you strong?

My eyes are red not from crying out for you
My eyes are swollen from Jet Lag, you see
My eyes are red not from breaking up with you
My eyes are swollen from Jet Lag
It must be!

I don't want very much Just a lover
And I try to be true when I am in love
But for some the truth has no meaning
Just the same old white lie's
Not enough.

Am I alone, pretending
Enerything is wonderful and perfect in the state of love
Nothing can and nothing will go wrong
Can you believe in it?
Even if
The lies can make you strong?

My eyes are red not from crying out for you
My eyes are swollen from Jet Lag, you see
My eyes are red not from breaking up with you
My eyes are swollen from Jet Lag
It must be!
