Running out of Lies

You took me away, you swept me away
You brought me to the top on the 18^th floor
We were looking out, looking down
I was looking below on a world I’ve never seen before

I was holding your hand in my mind
I was savouring the moment in the flickering light
We were teasing the air, breathing the night
I was closing my eyes to stop you reading my mind

Cos you are nothing like anything that I have ever known
And I’m running out of lies to pretend to you that I am not in love

My love so shy, it runs and it hides
In the fields, in the reeds in case you deny it
It fears the cold, it longs to hold you
I was closing my eyes to stop you reading my soul

Cos you are nothing like anything that I have ever known
And I’m running out of lies to pretend to you that I am not in love

My love is strong but shy
You know it runs away, it hides
Won’t you free me from my disguise
I’m burning up inside

Cos you are nothing like anything that I have ever known
And I’m running out of lies to pretend to you that I am not in love

I’ve run out of lies
I’ve got to tell you that I am in love
