Lover Lyrics & Tabs by Jane Ellen Bryant
Lover
guitar chords lyrics
My lover is a child
He keeps his thoughts running wild
My poor sweetheart has a curse
He can make anyone hurt.
He'll lie and he'll reason, his eyes flicker with truth
And you'll start believing that you're bulletproof
People just see who he's trying to be
But I know who you are.
My baby is afraid
So he needs for everyone to stay
Oh, my friend, he made a plan
But it makes him way less of a man.
He'll lie and he'll reason while he lays in your bed
You won't even notice what it does to your head
You want to believe who he's trying to be
He'll lie and he'll reason while he lays in your bed
You won't even notice what it does to your head
You want to believe who he's trying to be
But I know who you are.
What good would it do
If I said all these things straight to you?
Yes, I know then, but I choose
'Cause maybe I need you, too.
So I lie and I reason, tell myself that it's fine
I'll never quite get if you're hers or you're mine
I want to believe that there's pardon for me
But I've known who you are.
