A Matter of Trust

 

Some love is just a lie of the heart,

the cold remains of what began with a passionate start.

 

And they may not want it to end,

but, it really's just a question of when.

 

I've lived long enough to have learned,

the closer you get to the fire,

the more you get burned.

 

But, that won't happen to us,

cause it's always been a matter of trust.

 

Now, I know you're an emotional girl,

it took a lot for you to not lose your faith in this world.

 

But, I can't offer you proof,

but, you're gonna face a moment of truth.

 

It's hard when you're always afraid,

you just recover when another belief is betrayed.

 

So break my heart if you must,

it's a matter of trust.

 

You can't go the distance,

with too much resistance.

 

I know you have doubts,

but, for Gods sake don't shut me out.

 

This time you got nothing to loose,

you can take it or leave it,

whatever you choose.

 

I won't hold back anything,

and I'll walk away a fool or a king.

 

Some love is just a lie of the mind,

it's make believe until it's only a matter of time.

 

And some might have learned to adjust,

but, then it never was a matter of trust.

 

I'm sure your aware of,

we've both had our share of believeing too long,

when the whole situation was wrong.

 

Some love is just a lie of the soul,

a constant battle for the ultimate state of control.

 

After you've heard lie upon lie,

there can hardy be a question of why.

 

Some love is just a lie of the heart,

the cold remains of what began with a passionate start.

 

But, that can't happen to us,

cause it's always been a matter of trust.

 

It's a matter of trust,

it's always been a matter of trust.
