There was a time when love was blind Back then we were out of our minds The dreams we had turned out too wild The world got swept under our feet Love is a lie, love is a beautiful lie We shared our dreams in one heart beat We thought we could not drift apart The plans we had were built too steep And now they come crumbling down Love is a lie, love is a beautiful lie Sometimes we win, sometimes we hurt and our hearts ache And we can't tell the nights from the days How many times, how many ways Can our hearts break cause I don't know how much we can take Love is a lie, love is a beautiful lie I ask myself what could I have done To stop us from drifting apart Now it's too late for tears and I'm missing a piece of my heart I'm falling hard Love has no safety nets, life's full of empty bets Our life is a merry-go-round And love is a lie, love is a beautiful lie Sometimes we win, sometimes we hurt and our hearts ache And we can't tell the nights from the days How many times, how many ways Can our hearts break cause I don't know how much we can take Love is a lie, love is a beautiful lie Now the time stands still Every hour goes by like a million years I keep on going back to the times we had Again and again Sometimes we win, sometimes we hurt and our hearts ache And we can't tell the nights from the days How many times, how many ways Can our hearts break cause I don't know how much we can take Love is a lie, love is a beautiful lie Yeah, love is a lie, love is a beautiful lie
