I've got a feeling, I won't be hanging around We're on the reel and you still ain't making a sound Oh, I could lose my mind, on all it could be worst But we're only lovers and they're only lies We're worth the waiting, who's worth the staying a while? My tune was changing, though I hadn't touched the dial And you ask, how could I be so cruel to leave you in your crying? Well, we're only lovers and they're only lies Only lines to a song Only words to sing along But you can't part the rhythm from the rhyme And the road how it bends Don't you know it only ends in only lies? We celebrate something that's just as good as gone We win some and break some hearts To move this love along I stumble for the words, but then I forget why (why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why?) 'Cause we're only lovers and they're only lies I stumble for the words, but then I forget why (why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why?) 'Cause we're only lovers and they're only lies We're only lovers and they're only lies
