Love in the Lies by Amos Lee

I ain’t no wide eyed rebel
Oh, but I ain’t no preacher’s son
And now I see the trouble
And all the loving that I have done

And the world ain’t no harder
Than it’s ever been
Looking for love
In the lies of a lonely friend

And so much superstition
And so much worry in my heart
I need a new religion
It’s time to make a brand new start

And the world ain’t no easier
Than it’s ever been
Looking for love
In the lies of lonely friend

Remember when we were in California
We were so much happier then
Now we’re back in New York City
Looking for love in the lies of a lonely friend

And now the clocks are running
And no one knows where time goes
You know the moon is stunning
It’s only shadows that she shows

And the world ain’t no harder
Than it’s ever been
Looking for love
In the lies of lonely friend

I ain’t no wide eyed rebel
Oh, but I ain’t no preacher’s son
