You kept your word a secret
Because of what it meant for me
I knew there was no answer
That could show what you needed to see
Your words were veiled promises
Your actions open lies
You longed to make your escape
From these worldly ties
My life was in certain peril
We didn't have the time
To find a kind of answer
Or cross that borderline
Your words were veiled promises
Your actions open lies
You longed to make your escape
From these worldly ties
You took my hand so sweetly
We ran into the night
Not knowing who would catch us
But knowing that they might
Your words were veiled promises
Your actions open lies
You longed to make your escape
From these worldly ties
