Makeba Love Will Tell
I don’t intend to let it break me
And I don’t plan to start a fight
But this pain is here to save me
From the skeletons you hide
You were standing in the rain
Still won’t wash it all away
Your heart won’t lay you around
This is the truth, you don’t have to lie to me
When you look in the mirror, the one you’re facing
Reminds you of those things you promised
This is the truth, you don’t have to hide from me
The shadows and the dark will shut you up and drag you down to hell
Then love will tell, love will tell
Even when you’re right here with me
Feels like you’re so far away
I guess all others just … indeed
Because you gave your half away
You feel yourself starting to drown
And no one else can hear the sound
Your heart won’t let you off that easily
This is the truth, you don’t have to lie to me
When you look in the mirror, the one you’re facing
Reminds you of those things you promised
This is the truth, you don’t have to hide from me
The shadows and the dark will shut you up and drag you down to hell
Then love will tell, love will tell
Looking over your shoulder yeah
Every step gets colder
You’re stuck in the maze, to take your round and round and round
This is the truth, you don’t have to lie to me
When you look in the mirror, the one you’re facing
Reminds you of those things you promised
This is the truth, you don’t have to hide from me
The shadows and the dark will shut you up and drag you down to hell
Then love will tell, love will tell.
