Lyrics

There's a lie that I told to you That now I can't tell the truth And it ate me inside, so one soft drunken night I slept with a man you knew And in the morning I walked home alone And the businessmen saw my bones With my skirt in their eyes, they remembered the nights When they were that man you knew You told me once You were happy to have me But I never gave me away There's the lie that I told to you I would give you my heart, I think But it's up in a branch of a tree It was only to tease when he climbed up the tree Put my heart where I couldn't reach I didn't mind, I adored him, so We forgot, and we left for home And that was so long ago, now the tree it has grown And nobody knows my lover is buried underground Nobody knows my lover is buried underground Nobody knows my lover is buried underground There's a lie that I told to you
