Deception Lyrics

Tony Stewart Deception

(The Backroom Boys)
How can you say, "I love you"
When you mock me the way you do ?
How can I but your heart despise
When all you give to me are lies ?
Love is just an empty word
And no true sentiment conferred
You offer love that's incomplete
I've looked for trust but found deceit
How can you say, "I love you"
(Please don't vex my soul this way)
When you mock me the way you do ?
(Tormenting me from day to day)
How can I but your heart despise
(I cannot keep my mind from you)
When all you give to me are lies ?
(I'll tell you what you want me to)
Love is just an empty word
(God provides my strength and might)
And no true sentiment conferred
(For I have been a Nazirite)
You offer love that's incomplete
(Cut my hair and as I speak,)
I've looked for trust but found deceit
(Like other men, I shall be weak)
