I have a tale to tell Sometimes it gets so hard to hide it well I was not ready for the fall Too blind to see the writing on the wall A man can tell a thousand lies, I've learned my lesson well Hope I live to tell the secret I have learned 'til then It will burn inside of me ♪ I know where beauty lives I've seen it once I know the one she gives The light that you could never see It shines inside you can't take that from me A man can tell a thousand lies, I've learned my lesson well Hope I live to tell the secret I have learned 'til then It will burn inside of me The truth is never far behind, you kept it hidden well If I live to tell the secret I knew then, will I Ever have the chance again If I ran away I'd never have the strength to go very far How would they hear the beating of my heart Will it go cold (Will it go cold) The secret that I hide, will I grow old How would they hear (How would they hear) When will they learn, how would they know They know, they know, they know A man can tell a thousand lies, I've learned my lesson well Hope I live to tell the secret I have learned 'til then A man can tell a thousand lies, I've learned my lesson well Hope I live to tell the secret I have learned 'til then It will burn inside of me
