Sweet Lies by Robert Palmer

We tell sweet lies, fooling one another
We gain a fake upper hand
We get outsmarted when we rediscover
We underplay

You took me in, I never minded
You broke the rules, I saw through you then

What a surprise when we turn into lovers
The tables turn on us
All those sweet lies, tear away the covers

And now we know not to underestimate
What hearts can do
You keep an eye on me
I’ll keep an eye on you

We tell sweet lies, fooling one another
We gain a fake upper hand
We get outsmarted when we rediscover
We underplay

You took me in, I never minded
You broke the rules, I saw through you then

What a surprise when we turn into lovers
We never guessed it could be
All those sweet lies, tear away the covers
The tables turn

We tell sweet lies, fooling one another
We gain a fake upper hand
We get outsmarted when we rediscover
We underplay

All those sweet lies, tear away the covers
