Véronique Sanson How Many Lies song lyrics

How many lies have you told me when you knew I was away?

If it isn't you, it isn't me that drove the other away.

How many times have I told you that only your eyes could tell the truth

No baby, you can't lie to me anymore, so please please, set me free.

And I know you didn't want to put me down

You didn't mean me any harm

Cause I know that music will keep us in love.

And you know I didn't want to walk away, and I still love you anyway

Cause I don't believe there is an ending.

How many loves have we had behind each other's back?

How many lonely holidays have we spent so far away?

And now we live a lonely life, and I know it isn't fair

And if time keeps us alive, puts on a brand new love affair.

And I know you didn't want to put me down

You didn't mean me any harm

Cause I know that music will keep us in love.

And you know I didn't want to walk away, and I still love you anyway

Cause I don't believe there is an ending.

How many lies have you told me when you knew I was away?

Now all you've got left of me are my songs

And you can sing them when I'm gone.
